The Redwoods (mountain biking): We were kind of tired of hiking, so we found a big trail system (140 km!) and rented mountain bikes for the afternoon. The bikes were hardtail Giants that were bottom of the line, it gave me a renewed appreciation for my bike! But the trails made up for the crummy bike. We started off on a few easy trails near the rental place and then headed farther out. There was a huge, clear cut hill that had a downhill trail with massive jumps. That was far beyond our skill, but we started up the dirt road to the top to try an easier trail down. We had originally planned to go all the way up, but the hill was bigger than it looked, so we bailed onto a trail maybe half way up. The trail down was awesome. Lots of little jumps and nice flowy trail. I think I would really enjoy downhill mountain biking. We worked our way back to the start after this point. Found a couple other trails that had super fun jumps/tabletops. I was only somewhat successful at jumping, but I had a blast trying. The last trail we rode was a grade 4 (we had been on grade 3 or below) and it required walking in a few places, so I'm glad we didn't do more of those. Fun afternoon of biking.
Kerosene Creek (no tracks): This wasn't really a hike, but we went to a creek where the water was close to 100F. It was clear, flowing water that felt like a hot tub! Amazing!
Mud Pools (no tracks): Also not a hike, but the sound of bubbling mud was kind of awesome.
