And while on weekdays you'd be hard pressed to find more than a handful of people exploring our beloved Mount Tamalpais, on weekends it is a different story -- swarms of bicyclers and day-trippers come out to soak up the beauty of the area.   Oh yeah, you'll find a few photographers running around up on Mt. Tamalpais too...

Such free-form and abstract plants, these Douglas Iris.

And this is the darker, more blueish variety of Douglas Iris.   Come back tomorrow and I'll show you more.
