Hike up Mission Peak in Fremont from Ed Levin Park in Milpitas?
I went on this hike last year with my cousins. Took about 8 hrs to complete.

Anyone here wanna go? Some friends and cousins are gonna go up the 1st
weekend of June most likely.
Time to start training... :banana:

i remember hiking that with my parents when i was about 10 or 11...tiring as hell. With atleast 50 more lbs on my frame, i'm not confident enough to say i can do it again. Though it does make for a great challenge, i'll have to sit this one out.
Good Luck!!!

yeah, i agree. it was pretty damn hot even when we went during spring break. if temps are too high in june, i'll delay this till fall/winter.
maybe i'll look at some trails @ the ones you mentioned.

Make sure you bring plenty of water. I went through like a gallon and a half while I was up there. !!!
Winter is definetely when to go... well, when it isn't soggy.

1) it's exposed, not much shade
2) it's not in great condition
3) hot/dry + bikes = major dust.
But I was surprised at the quality of the trails there being so close to major metropolitan areas. Not the best trails I've been on, but good for the proximity.
Big Basin has better trails, but is more of a drive to get there.
