Intended to walk up Tam from Stinson Beach.  Again.  Dog said no and barricaded the door to the garage.  He is still mad about getting left out of Diablo.

Me: state parks still don't allow dogs and mt tam is a state park

Jake the dog:  summit isn't

Me: but hiking from Stinson Beach passes through the park

Jake: so hike from Alpine Lake.  I love Cataract Falls.

Me:  Alpine lake is 650′.  That's cheating.

Jake: so we tack on inspiration point and Collier spring, maybe even lagunitas lake.

Me: Collier spring trail sucks, steep and slippery and have to scramble up/down one part

Jake: I spend all day every day on all fours.  Can't scramble 2 minutes?

Me: Fine, but you carry your own water.

Jake:  Hello? This is Marin County watershed with creeks and springs.  Pack extra snacks.  And the peanut butter.  I'll carry the peanut butter.

Me:  then I won't get any peanut butter.

Jake: Sounds like another YOU problem.
