Walks and Stairs

Training for the Dolomites. You do what you can in flat Davis…
We’re trying to get some hikes in at some of the regional parks within a reasonable drive from Davis, but those hikes are, so far, few and far between. My usual walk around the creek will have to suffice on Davis days. I sweeten the pot by bookending that walk with a bunch of trips to the top of this parking garage.

Here’s a shot through campus today (west side of the Quad):
