Goat Rock

Another rock formation

There is a little foot bridge about 0.5 miles from the parking lot where the main trail continues along a creek to the falls and another branches off to the goat rock. The two trails are joined by a 0.2 mile long section joining the Saratoga Gap Trail (after water fall) and Ridge Trail (after Goat rock). So, no worries if you take either.

A great view of Monterey Bay with Eagles soaring in the sky.

The nest like formations on a leafless tree are a parasite called Oak Mistletoe.

These wildflowers were scattered all over on several meadows.

It was a nice walk.
