This was a little ramble on a lower section of Mount Diablo. I started just outside the North Gate entrance to the park, and hiked up the North Gate Road to the Burma Road Trail and then came back down on the Camel Rock Trail.

All photographs were taken with a Canon 20D camera and a Canon EFS 18-55mm lens
