Comments: This hike surprised us. With the rainstorm the night before the vernal creeks were running clear and the waterfalls were flowing. Easy walking on the top among volcanic rocks, green grasses and blankets of wildflowers. Eights days later the water was gone but the grasses were still green and the wildflowers taller.

Thanks Becky - so far 5 of our SJH members are planning to come and should meet your group at Burger King.  Hope hike goes well.

Steve - Would it be o.k. if some members of my hiking group San Joaquin Hikers went on your Table Mt. hike tomorrow/Sat?  Our scheduled hike will be too muddy.  Please e-mail me with reply ASAP.  THANKS!
