elf1  > Hiking > Henry Coe Bell Station Hiking June 8 2008 Burra Burra Trail
We hiked from the new (last year) Henry Coe park entrance at Bell's Station. This section of the park, until last year, was accessible only by a 15-mile hike from the other side of the park. We drove 7 miles on a dirt/gravel road from highway 152 at Bells Station (one closed restaurant, a large barn, several outbuildings, and a big house). We hiked on the Burra Burra Trail (roughly 2.5-3 miles). Afterwards, on the way home, we stopped at Casa de Fruta (see my photos).

elf1 > Some wee tiny white flowers on some kind of plant. (This useful botanical info provided for your education.) (Steph thinks maybe mint family.)
elf1 > More purple flowers of a different persuasion. Probably hairy vetch aka winter vetch (Vicia villosa).
elf1 > We hiked up this hill about a quarter mile and 200 feet up from the visitor center to the Burra Burra trailhead.
elf1 > We had heard that the trails weren't well marked, but in fact, as Paul and Linda point out, there was a sign marking the trail from the road.

elf1 > The trail is visible through the grassland and oaks, but really we're wading through grass most of the way.
