Bay Trail: Mountain View to Palo Alto, Creeks and Birds, 1/12/23 by Ronald Horii
This is a continuation of my bike ride, which started on the Stevens Creek Trail in Mountain View (See High Water: Stevens Creek Trail in Mountain View, 1/12/23:
https://tinyurl.com/3nrvytzc). This was after weeks of rainy weather that was causing widespread local flooding and overflowing reservoirs. I was looking to see what the effects were on the creeks leading to the Bay. I rode down the Stevens Creek Trail to the San Francisco Bay Trail at Shoreline at Mountain View Park. I went from there to the new Adobe Creek Bridge and then on to San Francisquito Creek next to East Palo Alto. This is what I saw. I rode my bike between the Palo Alto Baylands and Shoreline Park last August and took lots of bird pictures: Bay Trail Bike Ride: Palo Alto Baylands to Shoreline Park, 8/6/22: https://tinyurl.com/euy4efet.
