Big Basin to the Coast Hike

Our small couples group (which isn't so small) embarked on a hike from the Big Basin Park Headquarters to Waddell Beach, some 12-13 miles. It was a perfect day and we passed by a couple beautiful waterfalls along the way.

We saw dozens of Ariolimax californicus along the way and I couldn't resist getting a close up with Rachel Stump donning her banana slug hat. Mike Gallagher is seen in the background.

We couldn't hike all the way to the beach without having a barbeque, especially with Aussies in our group. Here is Horst Brenner fanning the flames with Keith MacBeth looking on with more than casual interest.
