Our typical Saturday morning walks are up West Dunne Avenue and the maintenance access road to the water tank on El Toro, the distinctive hill that overlooks Morgan Hill on the west side of Santa Clara Valley.  Round trip time is about 1-1/2 hours.  This walk took place on the morning of 18 May 2002.
