Mount Diablo - Summit Trail

I live 6 miles from the south gate of Mount Diablo for over 8 years. Last September, I decided to pick up hiking again and take advantage of these wonderful trails in my "backyard". I stopped after going up ther for 3 times in September and October of 2007 for various reasons - rain, ski, travel... Finally started again in Feburary.
