Castle Rock

Castle Rock in Mt. Diablo State Park. This huge rock formation dominates the view along trails in the area.

Mt. Diablo is an incredible wilderness oasis in the heavily-populated San Francisco Bay Area. There are several endemic plant species found on the mountain, as well as rare animals. Mt. Diablo is a jewel of a park, and worth stopping by if you're in the area.

Do you like to hike? Is that how you get all these beautiful photos? Mr Chiots and I are big hikers. We frequent the areas over here in the East since we live in Ohio. We've big fans of the Smokies & the Catskills.
