Mission Peak

Another weekend, another hike.  This time down to Fremont to climb Mission Peak.

That's Mission Peak in the distance.  We started the climb from Ohlone College.  It's a relentless uphill climb.  One foot in front of the other.

Cows!

As we climbed up, although a bit hazy, the Bay came into view.

After an hour, the peak came into view.  As you see, the trail is pretty much a wide gravel road.

From the top, a view of the East Bay hills.




Happy Ernie!  And after the hike, we ate some Chinese food in Milpitas, then to IKEA (where Onions knows that it's best to let me hang out in the cafe while he shops) and then to meet his friend who had just flown in from Beijing!
