We will be hiking part of the Ohlone
Wilderness Trail. We will start this hike early due to the length. The meeting
will be about 3 miles into the hike to give everyone an opportunity to attend.
Those who wish can return from here. We will continue another 3 miles and if we
are lucky see the falls. The falls are notoriously unpredictable and can only be
seen after a good rain. This whole hike does offer some amazing views.
