Recently, my friend Jake and I tackled a 3-day, 35-mile backpacking trip near San Francisco to catch up and spend some quality time together for his birthday. This short video of our adventure shows the park's beautiful redwood trees, an abandoned dairy farm, and some of the park's wildlife.

The remnants of an old dairy farm can be seen in Pescadero Creek Park.The remnants of an old dairy farm can be seen in Pescadero Creek Park.
