Oat Hill Mine Trail Revisited

Saturday, I decided to hike the Oat Hill Mine Trail out of Calistoga.  Nick was working and Cassidy had an appointment, so I thought I would hike one of my old go-to trails in Napa County.  The following are cell phone snapshots.

 Poppies and lupine

 It was a fresh and glorious day with blue sky and white puffy clouds.

 Indian paintbrush and blue dicks.

 A cell phone through the binoculars shot of three turkey vultures and a raven eating on a deer carcass that was torn into two halves.

 I got hailed on for about ten minutes (note hail on ground).

My secret lunch spot on the other side of the mountain.  I was happy to see that all was pretty much the same - a very pleasant 10 mile hike.
