Cache Creek Ridge: Judge Davis Trailhead

10/23/23

I visited this park and this trail a couple of times when I lived in Yuba City. It is pretty far from any big town (or small one), but is worth the drive. Since it’s remote there are usually only a few people out on the trail and I generally didn’t see anyone while hiking. I get all those sweeping views and big blue sky to myself! Make sure to visit on a cool day/during cooler months as the trail is very exposed. There is very little shade or tree coverage for most of the hike. Also best to bring a map as the trails aren’t very well marked. This is more if you want to make a loop route and not just the out and back. A hike with great hills, great views, and great solitude.

Hike Pierce Canyon

This hike follows a fire road through some farms, up into the woods and up the ridge. It's an accessible and easy trail, with some decent incline starting about halfway through (thus the "moderate" rating instead of easy). Park at the end of the road before the gate. (There is a sign that says to park in front of the sign to not block traffic -- please adhere to this!). The gate used to ha...

Hike to Wright Peak near Clearlake California

Hiking to Wright peak offers some of the best views of Clear Lake, California's largest natural freshwater lake. Located just about 2.5 hours north of San Francisco, this hike is accessible and easy to follow. To get to the trailhead, follow the 101 north to Hopland. Then take the 175 west towards Lakeport. At Lakeport take the 29 south until you reach Kelseyville. Take Main Street west toward...

Zim Zim Falls

This 8 mile (out and back) hike begins at the trail head off of Knoxville Road, just before mile marker 24. The first 3 miles are relatively flat, though you will cross the creek about 9 times. Right before you reach the waterfall, you will come to a fork in the trail marked by a pink boulder. Stay left to view the falls from below or go right for a short incline hike to see the falls from afar.

Camp at Clear Lake State Park

Clear Lake State Park is only two hours from downtown San Francisco and Sacramento. The state park offers amazing opportunities to photograph deer in the area and pick blackberries for breakfast on a morning stroll. On my visit I saw over 15 deer and one buck in full velvet. The sunrise and sunsets are also spectacular to photograph. But, the main reason Clear Lake is so famous is the Bass fish...

Hike Mount Saint Helena

Drive north from Napa following Rt 29, through Calistoga and up into the forest. After passing the sign for Robert Louis Stevenson State Park, and just over the crest, there is a parking area on the right side of the road, opposite the trailhead on the left. Parking fills up by mid-morning so get there early (and beat the heat!) If you're biking up, continue a short way down the hill to the nex...

Hike Bald Hill in Robert Louis Stevenson State Park

Bald Hill is the first serious peak/summit that can be reached via the Oat Hill Mine Trail as it breaks from the more popular loop and heads into the heart of Robert Louis Stevenson State Park. To get there you can either begin at the less frequently used trailhead at Picket and Rosedale Roads heading 1.6 miles uphill till it intersects with the identically named Oat Hill Mine trail going right...
