We got away for two nights at elevation close to home in an attempt to escape the current heat wave. Were we successful? The story and photos are posted to our blog and you can find it here -

Very enjoyable, thanks. Even more realistic than usual.
Sitting here on my couch with cool, moist swamp cooler air blowing gently past me and looking at the photos of your evening walk after the rainstorm, transported me right up there with you.

This quote alone make it a very successful trip. We hit 113 on Aug 16. Another great Trip Report.

You had me at: The night was wonderful with all the windows open. We slept so well and woke to delightful morning temps in the mid fifties.
The only thing I dislike more than sleeping with the A/C blowing on me is sleeping in oven-like temps. Thanks for taking us along!

Thanks Ski,that is such a beautiful area.
Close but far enough away from the crowds.

Thanks for the nice comments Bill & MDR! It was nice to escape for a short break. Now, fire conditions are such we are very hesitant about being away of here.
