Weather changed by the time we started the hike. I had seen cloudy weather, but it was sunny all day long. Hike was long. Had to take it slow but was able to finish it. Its a very tough hike. We started at 8 as that is when park opens. Took entire day.
We started with Mitchell Rock, then Twin Peaks and off to Eagle Peak. That is a hike in it self. Then we moved to Bald Ridge Trail (Very beautiful and so different form other Mount Diablo trails). Then after prospectors gap, north peak trail to Diablo Summit. Return was thru Juniper trail, then Deer Flat and Mitchel Canyon fire road.
Took many breaks and took it slow. Carry lots of water, There is a filling station at the summit, but keep drinking water and stay hydrated.
