So same here except early morning coffee on the deck has elk walking on the golf course…
And I had to take a deep breath and manage the challenge of the 3000' accent to the summit of Tehachapi Mountain over 5 miles, not the easy 8 km in Norwood.
The trailhead is at 6000' and the summit is 7978'.

| Cool mountain air as we made our way up |

| Scrambling up... |
The switchbacks give way to a steep scramble for the last 1 mile.
Hard on the knees both ways. Had to hold onto Fred to get down, its so steep and slippery.
I am so grateful that I am out on a trail, feeling well and strong, and Fred supporting me along the way.

| Lovely views along the switchbacks. |
 |
| Breathing deeply! |
 |
| Views were special, at the summit stunted pines blocked the big vistas, so ate our dates and chatted to some youngsters who were climbing with us. |
