Tuolumne County Trailhead as an interactive radio show/hiking group is about three years old but actually was born 11 years ago, as a Facebook group. It was intended as a meet-up space for hikers looking for partners. Our first hikes were at the Red Hills and Fraser Flat with a core I've come to call "The Four Founders": Vonna Breeze-Martin, Deborah Campbell, Robert Swift, and me. The COVID-19 pandemic shelter-in-place order aroused fond memories of getting together with you Trail Heads. Naturally, my mind drifted back to TCT's beginnings, and I decided to get the old group together again -- for a Zoom conversation. Listen to us chat about the good old days, wax philosophical about the mental benefits of being in the outdoors, our plans for future adventures, and more. Here's a link to the radio episode "TCT #30 -- The Four Founders":

Also, hang in there Trail Heads -- Wendy's working on a plan to get out together: more hikes in small groups. Stay tuned!
