Okay, the scene at the bottom is the view of Eiger from the Bachalpsee in the Swiss Alps . . . but with Redwood Park in my backyard, do we really need the expense of a trip to Switzerland to go on a great hike?
Well . . . .

Redwood Park in Oakland, California!!!
We moved from San Francisco to the Oakland Hills 20-some years ago (and we love SF!) mostly because of this remarkable 1800+ acre canyon on the eastern edge of Oakland. It has 50 miles of trails including two on either side of the canyon in the middle and a great many going up and down the slopes. And the park is connected by trail to a long line of East Bay parks extending from Richmond in the North to Castro Valley in the South and . . . all the way, by trail, to the top of Mt. Diablo in the east.
