Today was a great day for a hike. I purposely hiked the cutoff trail from the Rock Scree Trail so I could visit the large vernal pool. The pool was teeming with Red-spotted Newts--there were so many swiming around the edge of the pool, I couldn't even begin to count them. If you decide to visit, look carefully because the adult newts blend almost perfectly with the fallen leaves on the bottom. Be patient and you'll see them swimming amongst the leaves.
