Mt. Diablo hike/rock climbing

I love going hiking and rock cilmbing at Rock City in Mt. Diablo.

Maybe we can get small group, pack a lunch, and do a drive up diablo for a hike and rock climbing in a few weeks or so while the weather is good. I normally go to diablo at least 10 times every summer.

random pics of rock city http://www.inn-california.com/sanfra.../rockcity.html

Plus, there are some cools spots to get nice panoramas of your car on the way up the mountain

I'd like to go on a saturday/sunday in a few weeks from now
Let me know if anybody is interested.

not with ropes and stuff
rock city is just a bunch of huge rocks that you can climb on while hiking. All you need is a good pair of hiking shoes.


some of the rock caves http://www.inn-california.com/sanfra...blo/caves.html

That picture was something like 40-45 shots from left to right, put together using Panoramic Factory and a lot of manual fine tuning
