Mt Diablo Hike
  
Last Saturday, May 1st, 8 scouts and 7 adults bravely completed the 7 mile roundtrip trek to Mt Diablo summit. The weather was absolutey spetacular in the upper 70's with a cool breeze in the shade. There where alot of hikers, bikers, and other scouts out enjoying the weather, clear skies, and awing at the blanket of wild flowers, green grass, trees along the trails. Along our trek, we saw some Red Tailed hawks, a deer, a falcon, wild turkeys, and even Yellow Swallow Tails doing the mating dance at the Summit. I want to thank all the scouts and adults who came out and completed the hike. The hike was very challenging but everyone made it back. The scouts in charge did an awesome job in leading the hike, taking the job of "trail" leader very serously. A big thank you to the adult leaders who accompanied me on the hike and helped. Thanks to all for a very memorable event. I have attached some pictures of our day, enjoy!!
