The sun breaks through the clouds on a stormy afternoon. The surrounding hillsides make it easy to forget you are in the middle of Silicon Valley.

Antennas line the ridge here and the Stanford Dish is seen off in the distance on the right-hand side. Walkers and runners are asked to stay on the trail and not wander in the fields, which are in the process of being restored.

The sun breaks through the clouds on a stormy afternoon. The surrounding hillsides make it easy to forget you are in the middle of Silicon Valley.
Antennas line the ridge here and the Stanford Dish is seen off in the distance on the right-hand side. Walkers and runners are asked to stay on the trail and not wander in the fields, which are in the process of being restored.
The trail continue to climb along the hillside until it turns to the right (seen in the distance here). From the turn, the trail climbs more gently.
The Stanford Campus and Hoover Tower spread out on the lefthand side of the trail. The 285 foot tower was completed in 1941.
The Stanford Dish stays in view during the majority of this section of the trail. The Dish is still functional, so depending on what is going on, it may be pointed in different directions on different days.
The Stanford Dish.
New trees being planted that will one day grow to provide shade for the area.
