Story

Outing of Wilma's Wednesday Hikers starting at the trailhead on Pleasant Hill Rd. and taking the Lafayette Ridge Trail to the Russell Peak trail. After a lunch stop on the peak, we returned on the same route, but I opted for the Buckeye Ranch/Springhill trail alternative which some others had used on the way up.
