Hike from New Idria  Sucess!

Man, missed out on my own first signing :-) We parked just above New Idria and made a 14-15 mile hike out of it. We went up on R010 on the ridge south of San Carlos Creek and down on T156 on the north ridge, checking out San Carlos Peak on the way back. Very interesting place, lots of exploring.

Day Trip  Sucess!

I'll be the first to sign the climbers log. This was CA county high point #9 for me. It was a fun day trip out exploring. I found the abandoned town of New Idria interesting with warning signs all over about not stopping and audio and video monitoring. I parked my car at a road junction and hiked the last mile - mile and a half to the summit. There is a rockpile to climb up on to get the highest point. Stopped and had a soda and learned some of the history of New Idria at the store mentioned before heading home. I'll post some picture if I can find them
