I came out to Mt. Tam today to work on the 25 Marin Peak Challenge but also to get some hiking in. I started the main part of my hike at Ballou Point and ended with Willow Camp. If you are going to Bare Knoll I highly recommend continuing your hike to both of the main Cataract Falls. Especially if you are hiking in Late Winter through Spring. Today did not dissapoint. I have hiked Cataract Falls at least 10 times and today was by far the most Majestic these falls have ever been. I was wet for the majority of the day and drenched for at least an hour. It was still an AMAZING day and hike!
