What an awesome Thanksgiving Day hike! We started out at 8:30am and returned to the car at 4:00pm. Yeah, we take a lot of photos (less than half end up here) plus lunch and rest stops. ;)
Our destination today was Tao House (pronounced "Dow") the home of the Pulitzer and Nobel Prize winner playwright Eugene O'Niell.
Beautiful from the start!
Most colorful scat we've ever seen!
What are sisters for..
This is why hiking pants have zippers on the legs.
That's a lot of mistletoe.
These are some healthy coyotes.
No lack of food here.
Eagle Peak
(Funny looking eagle.)
How apropos!
Our walking sticks at rest.

We were hoping the white spots in the middle were owls.
Unfortunately it appears to be plastic of some sort.
