Road Trip..from the air!...
Posted: Sun May 13, 2012 11:37 amToday has been a busy day, but very enjoyable.
Wheeled out my little Piper Super Cub from its hangar at Christensen Ranch (0Q4).
Unravelled my map of the local area, and plotted an interesting route following marked roads on my Satellite Map.
Took off, turned sharp left, and followed highway 25 through a gap in the mountains at the bottom end of Silicon Valley enroute to Pinnacles Ranch.
Landed at the Ranch and examined my map again.
This time following HWY 146, and climbing up the mountains towards Pinnacles Mountain, stopping off at a Bear Creek picnic site near the top of Pinnacles (Pinnacles National Monument).
Dropping down HWY 146, passing Chalone Vinyard (53CA) on the way to Soledad and meeting up with Interstate HWY 101.
Dropped of at Clark Ranch (3CA9) for a drink, studied
