Acknowledgments

First, I’d like to thank Tom Winnett, founder of Wilderness Press, for inviting me on this life-changing voyage. Without him, I’d still be just a photographer. Thanks also to all the other folks at Wilderness Press, current and former, including Caroline Winnett, Mike Jones, Jannie Dresser, Andreas Schueller, Larry Van Dyke, Roslyn Bullas, and Elaine Merrill.

Many people helped make this book by sharing their time, their information, and their expertise.

Friends were enlisted (entrapped?) as photography models and sometimes as hiking companions. Thanks to Laura Wood, Paul Ash, Silvia Fernandez, Elena Ash, Jed Manwaring, Brenda Tharp, Steve Gregory, Vickie Vann, Ken Kobre, Betsy Brill, Mary Thorsby, John Macchia, Angela Macchia, Susan Rouder, George deTunq, Lea Redmond, Otto Schutt, Lee Eisman, Jay Tennenbaum, Jordan Tennenbaum, and Carla Palmer.

Enjoying the trails vicariously, Denise Rehse and Debi Devitt transcribed countless hours of taped notes. Ben Pease drew the excellent maps and made valuable comments and suggestions based on his extensive knowledge of Bay Area trails. Kate Hoffman and Jed Manwaring visited some of the East Bay parks included in this book and provided updated material.

On a sad note, two people involved with my first book, East Bay Trails, have since passed away. Dorothy L. Whitnah, a Wilderness Press author, reviewed my original outline and kept me informed of East Bay happenings. Galen Rowell, a great photographer and East Bay native, wrote the book’s foreword.

Finally, thanks to my wife, Maggi, for her love and support.
