Blue Sky at the Summit
Fremont, California
The story
A bright summer climb to the Mission Peak pole, with the Bay stretching out below.
Mission Peak was all sun, open sky, and steady uphill work. The trail kept asking for a little more, and the summit made the answer easy.
At the top, the view opened across the Bay and the famous pole became the day's marker: tired legs, dusty shoes, and a blue-sky memory worth keeping.
