Bernardo Mountain, Escondido - March 2008

Mike took me to this mountain, Bernardo Mountain, that he and a co-worker had hiked a couple of times. It's located about 20 minutes from our house, close to Escondido. We saw some great views from the top. There is still some damage seen from the wildfires, but the area seems to be making a comeback. Because of the rain we have gotten lately, a lot of things were blooming. http://www.sdrp.org/
