Cold Canyon
this weekend I went for a short hike at Cold Canyon. Cold Canyon is the closest place to go hiking from where I live and I go there about once a month or so, if it's not too hot. Unfortunately, part of the trail is off-limits to dogs. There is a 5+miles loop there which is surprisingly rugged/streneous in parts (rocks/bolders and1000ft elev gain in 1mi, etc.). It's great for conditioning and breaking in gear. This time, the top of the ridge was socked in with low lying clouds/fog, which didn't burn off until later that morning.
Ascending the ridge looking down the putah creek.
A little higher at the cloud layer looking through the gap towards the central valley.
Peak shrouded in fog/clouds.
Another foggy peak.
The colors actually show up really well with the diffuse light.
