So I”ve got a week’s vacation coming up at the end of March and I’m determined to take me a little backpacking trip of three to four days. There are a couple obvious trips nearby, like the Skyline-to-the-Sea Trail and the Ohlone Trail, but I’ve day-hiked most of them and would like to try something new.

Of course there’s always the wide open spaces of Henry Coe State Park, of which I’ve hiked a tiny fraction. I”m not really interested in the Sierra — I’l save that for after the snow melts.

If any of you Bay Area types have suggestions, let ’em rip.
