This site began in November of 2008 as a way to involve Photography and Hiking two of my great passions.
This site focuses on hiking Hundred Peaks Section (HPS), Desert Peaks Section (DPS) and San Diego County (SDC) peak lists created by the Sierra Club. There are trip reports and photography as I continue to check off peaks from these lists. There is also a rich mapping application where people can find elevation profiles, trail routes, peak locations and National Park and Forest Land.

Started in June of 2009, this blog details my trip reports on summiting 100 peaks in San Diego, selected gear reviews, general outdoor news (mostly San Diego-based) and profiles on local non-profit organizations dedicated to protecting and expanding our public lands. I encourage people to get outside, promote stewardship of the outdoors and engage people in the spirit of the wilderness.

Anthony’s Audio Journal is a blog featuring links to my audio podcast about hiking and backpacking in Southern California and the Eastern Sierra Mountain . In each episode I give a description of where I’m hiking and a little history about the area. I use a stereo recorder to capture audio along the trail and conduct interviews with folks I meet along the way. Each episode also features music and effects to make the experience entertaining.
You can find Anthony’s Audio Journal on Itunes or on my web site

Hiking Lady was the vision of Carol Roberts, an avid hiker, backpacker, and outdoorswoman. Growing up in California helped her develop a passion for outdoor sports, the environment, and nature photography.

Welcome to the Northern California Hiking Trails blog. Iʼm John Soares, co-author of 100 Classic Hikes in Northern California, third edition and author of 75 Hikes in Californiaʼs Mount Shasta and Lassen Volcanic National Park Regions, revised edition. I did a lot of tramping and trekking in the wilderness long before I wrote the books, but doing the very enjoyable research for the hiking guides took me all over Northern California, from Santa Cruz to Crescent City, and from Mokelumne Wilderness to the Warner Mountains, Mount Shasta, and the Trinity Alps. So I have a broad perspective of the region. And a deep love for it. Iʼll share that love with you.
The overall focus of this blog is foot travel, but Iʼll also examine various facets of being outdoors, from maximizing trail-time enjoyment to details of hike updates to political, economic, social, and environmental aspects of north state trails. I also examine various stories and issues of interest to hikers.
I live near Mount Shasta in the far north of the state, about 60 miles or so south of the Oregon border, and I grew up around Redding just to the south, so Iʼll talk a bit more about Lassen Volcanic National Park and the Trinity Alps, for instance. But thereʼll be plenty on the Bay Area, the coast, and Sierra Nevada, I promise.
Blogging Area: Northern California, from Monterey Bay and Yosemite all the way to the Oregon border.
