Pinnacles National Monument

[GoneFission]

Went hiking at the Pinnacles National Monument (California) over the Labor Day weekend - beautiful place! If I were in to rock climbing, I'd be there every weekend. It does get a bit touristy, though.

Hope you enjoy!

Sweet! What time of day did you take these?

Thanks Don!

Hmm...by the time I got up there, is was probably 9:45-10am. Took a long time for that fog to burn off!

Got an early start, which paid off since I had the peaks all to myself the whole morning. So peaceful...

Thanks for posting. I'm going to be in Monterey this weekend and I'm thinking of going to pinnacles. Thanks, I'll have to check it out.

I like the fog shot.
