Henry Coe State Park Norhern California’s largest State Park, located outside of Morgan Hill was our destination for Sunday afternoon. We had never been there and it is up the hill from our current location. You drive 10 miles through Holiday Hills near Anderson Reservoir and into the hills until you come to this old farm or what remains of a farm and there you are. A beautiful day and we took our friends Annie & Marlin with us (actually Marlin had to drive!). We only did a little 1.6 mile hike but it was uphill all the way!
Looking back
This is us at the start of the trailhead. We asked for the easiest trail as it was already 3:30 pm and this is what we got – straight up for at least 1 mile, a little loop and then straight back down! We saw a lot of backbackers in the visitors area as this park really needs to be explored on foot over many days.

We returned home and put some burgers on the fire! A beautiful fall day in Morgan Hill.
