Steep Ravine

Early morning coastlineI’m still have over a week backlog of photos (and I’ve taken a lot lately!) but I managed to sort through and post a few of our campout at Steep Ravine Environmental Campground in the Marin headlands just north of San Francisco.

Nice cool (even foggy) weather.  The dense coastal chaparral is full of wildflowers - lupine, monkeyflower, calla lily, lavender, poppies, queen-anne’s lace, and many more, growing in tight profusion but still somehow miniaturized by the harsh conditions.  As my daughter said - "it’s like living in three-foot land!"

A delightfully relaxing trip - though it had a serious purpose.  We were testing our new camping gear in preparation for a three-day backpacking trip into Point Reyes.  Look for those photos soon!
