November, 2024

A few photos from Fall along San Vicente Creek. It's a wonderful in-town hike, and there are several new trails in the area.

Memorial to Efram Duran at the Mountain View trailhead. He was found deceased here on July 4, 2024. So far as I know, this case remains unsolved.

The magnificent cottonwoods. We may not have varied foliage like New England, but our colors are pretty intense, especially against a lapis blue sky!
