The Golden Gate at Sunrise

On Saturday, we got to see another glorious sunrise. We love the Marin Headlands as they provide a stunning view of the the Golden Gate, The Golden Gate Bridge, and the San Francisco Bay. For some reason we saw no wildlife with the exception of birds. It was odd as we usually see dozens of black tailed deer, not to mention the squirrels and bunnies playing murder ball in the road.

Still, the Golden Gate Bridge and the San Francisco skyline looked beautiful in the morning light.

Even the chert had a pretty red glow that morning.

I do wish we had seen more wildlife. Maybe we’ll get lucky next time.

A Return to Cataract Falls

Timing and weather finally permitted us to head back North to Marin County to visit Cataract Falls again.  We wrote about our first trip back in October of 2010. They are located on the West end of Alpine Lake on the Northwest slope of Mt. Tamalpais. We weren’t sure if the falls would be flowing or not as we are way behind on our rain for the season. However, we had two good rainfalls just before we went, so we were in luck.
