Eleven happy hikers took a magical trip to "Little Yosemite," hidden in the hills of Sunol Regional Wilderness east of Fremont, on Saturday, March 21. With mild temperatures and a cool breeze, the trail led us through rolling emerald green hills spread with wild flowers and dotted with oak trees, rocky out croppings, and occasional clusters of cows.
When we got to the Little Yosemite area, we scrambled down a rocky trail into the ravine and sat on large boulders by the stream and waterfalls. Then we climbed back up to a large rock overlook dubbed "little El Capitan". Then we looped back via a different trail through more beautiful rolling hills on our way back down to the parking lot. A relaxing and refreshing hike, and amazingly it only took about three hours. (Approx. 5 miles, and probably close to 1000 ft. elev. gain)
