Write-up by Steve -- Pictures by Steve and Steve L

Big turnout for an easy hike. Unfortunately, there was not much to see from the peak, as whole area was socked in fog the entire length of the hike. The good news was that, without a map and without much visibility, the group stayed together, making this one of the easier hikes to organize (and write up!). Maybe we should have all hikes work like this? Just kidding.

Afterward, a big group of INCHers went to a Chester-recommended (cheap) Cantonese restaurant, conveniently located along Grand Avenue on the way back to 101. The food hit the spot, particularly since we hadn't stopped for lunch along the way due to the abundance of wind and lack of views.
