Mount Woodson, Poway--near San Diego

Inland surfboard and...

Part-way up Woodson--stopping for a whine

Anyone in search of a first class hike should look no further than Mount Woodson in Poway. From the parking lot to the summit, taking the long way round, it is nine miles including a climb of 2300 feet. The views are terrific with surrounding boulders, mountains, plant-life and in addition, a whining editor, a somewhat unusual occurrence. On Chol Hamoed, Pesach—what a ‘good’ Friday.

Too much matzos--taking the gap
