Shell Ridge Goes Green

A few wildflowers are out; maybe an explosion of color next week?

Update: 2:00 p.m. Saturday, New Year's Day photo

Thanks to Patch reader JJ Mateer, who contributed the New Year's Day 2012 photo of a hike up Shell Ridge with "the beast" on point.

Also in the March 23 collection is a photo of Paul Canlas of Walnut Creek jogging down the Ridge Top Trail at Shell Ridge Open Space Friday.
