Hike or Climb?

The week of finals Justin and I attempted to go to Yosemite but the weather didn't cooperate. We ended up returning home but I could tell Justin wanted to get out and do some hiking... so I suggested we go to Garrapada (a State Park nearby). We've gone there once before and enjoyed a nice hike. This time he asked if he could show me a new path. Sure. We get to Garrapada and he points to this massive hill (that looked like a mountain) and said we're going up there (take you pick which of the peaks he was referring to). Okay. How far is that? Oh 3/4 of a mile. Alright... I can do that no problem.

LIAR!!! This was no hike (it was a climb) and it wasn't 3/4 of a mile. He later recanted and said "well it's 3/4 of a mile as a crow flies"... yes but we're not birds. Sometimes with pilots you have to clarify distances :)

There were incredible views from the top! So beautiful... but I think we'll wait until I'm in better shape before we attempt that climb again :)
