Ohlone Trail, Part 3

This weekend I finshed my series of runs on the Ohlone Trail. The third section, Del Valle to Rose Peak, is the most demanding. 20 miles, 6600 ft elevation gain. To top it off, I got a fair amount of rain and snow while I was up there. Of course, today it was beautiful and I was stuck at work instead.

I tried out a new gadget - a SPOT sattelite messenger. It works ok, but is probably best for not so real-time tracking. A bit heavy too. I got it as a means to relay my current status and wherabouts to my wife, and as an emergency device. It would work well for that.

I have some pictures but no energy to post them right now. I need to find an easier way to get the pictures from my camera to here.
