Weekend Sherpa

For Bay Area outdoor enthusiasts

Someone tipped me off to this great newsletter/website for the Bay Area weekend outdoor enthusiast: WEEKEND SHERPA

With a quick search of their archived articles it’s easy to find information about Pescadero area outdoor wonders. Such as “Swell Time” tipping people off to the thrill of watching the storm driven swells pounding the rocks off Pebble Beach.

In the broader Peninsula regard, you can go right to the Peninsula & South Bay section.

Personally, I think it’s time for the good folks (folk?) at Weekend Sherpa to consider going full-on blog website. A little online banter between Bay Area outdoors-aholics is always a fun read.

Sea Dreamin’ 7

From the Sea Dreamin’ series photographed in March ’09

An otherwise dreary winter day, but always emotionally stirring on the beach. The filtered light through the cloud cover lent itself well to the monochrome treatment.
