Yosemite-- A National Treasure
This is my first post that I am writing about day trips that are possible from Eagle Ridge in Gilroy, California. I am going to be focusing on places that one can get to on a day trip, and why it is great living in Gilroy, CA, if one likes to take day trips and get out of town for a little adventure.
Yosemite was a National Park, endowed to all citizens by President Theodore Roosevelt, who was a great naturalist. This beautiful place on our great planet was saved with the help of John Muir, who actually took Roosevelt here in an effort to save this natural beauty from development. Some places are just too beautiful to develop and perhaps get destroyed.
Roughly a 2.5 hour drive from Eagle Ridge, Yosemite offers spectacular views and is certainly a desitnation for many citizens and foreign travelers. Its stunning beauty and ever changing scenery makes it one of America's most popular parks. Located in the middle of California, this treasure is easily accesable by all weather roads, and there is lodging at the park, as well as plenty of lodging in the surrounding areas should one decide to make it more than just a day trip.
Here are some pictures showing off its beauty:
Visiting Yosemite shoulod be on everybody's to-do list. With its spectacular visitas and many points of interst, it is a great trip. There is also back country backpacking and campgrounds for those who enjoy the outdoors. I first visited when I was 10, and have been back numerous times. I has provided me with many, many lifelong memories.
