It was a great weekend for this hike. The weather started off really sunny but by the time we were getting ready to come back down had clouded up quite a bit, keeping us cool and not straining our water supplies. We decided to try a different path back down after running into some other hikers who told us about a path down the northern side that hooked back up into the main trail that wrapped around the lake. It was nice to make the hike a loop rather then out and back. This hike is not to far away from Corte Madera and Los Pinos Mountain.
