Purisima Creek Redwoods


Banana Slug!
This afternoon Dad Julia and I did part of a Bay Area Ridge trail in the Purisima Creek Redwoods OPS. 
 We saw 281 Banana slugs!!... I'm Banana slugged out! We just started counting and didn't stop. The hike is a 5.7 mile hike, in the beginning straight down hill and was quite rough since dad almost broke his ankle twice I took a slip but didn't fall. After a mile or two it started to flatten out a little bit, and we got into the Redwoods that's where the fun started to begin that was the best part of the hike, Julia said "Banana slug mecca." Who knows how much today? Then that's when the 1.8 of just straight up hill began we hiked over a hour up hill. This was a fun hike and I would definitely do it again. Even though we've hiked part of it before. We all had a lot of fun!
