All in the family
The latest in our Family MUni series featured our first father/son combo. Scott and Matthew came over from Mill Valley, and Scott’s wife Tracy hiked along with Nancy. We headed up to Joaquin Miller and did the climb from the meadow to Skyline via the north fork of Big Trees, coming down the other side of Big Trees and Upper Palos Colorados.
Scott won Best Biff on one of the chutes, Matthew did a line on the way back that he wasn’t willing to do on the way out, we got to see the Oakland DEVO middle school mountain biking team, and everyone had fun, which is of course the whole point.
I’ll continue to try to do one of these rides monthly, to give newer and less gnarly riders a chance to try things out.
