Biked up
Leisurely bike ride up the road to the summit. Biked over to St Helena East for the Napa COHP, then bombed down the road to SR 29 in under 10 minutes, then went to Cobb Mtn for the Sonoma COHP.

Up the fairly boring fire road. Nice clear day but extremely windy.

fire road
most of the trail is up a fire road which is pretty boring and a very indirect hike, but the views from the top are pretty good.
Nailed this one when I was in the Boy Scouts and a few times afterward. I hate hiking on roads.

Climbers path to road
Good training climb. Climbers path a bit shorter and steeper than the full road option

Great Day
Perfect day for coastal range hike. It was clear to the north, so I saw Lassen and I think I saw Shasta. To the west I was able to make out the Crystal Range. To the south Diablo and Mt.Tam poke up above the fog. I saw only 2 people going up and lots of people on the way down. I did South, East, and North Peaks at 6 hours CTC.

Got friends...
...in Lake County. So I pass the Mountain and hike it every few years. Usually managed to find places to cut up through the brush to shorten the bordom of the lengthy switchbacks but this is one mountain that pretty much forces you to stay on the trail.

Napa county highpoint
My wife and I were heading south when I decided to go for Mt. St. Helena and the Napa county highpoint. Today was pretty hot but overall this is basically a roadwalk. Several workers were installing some new stuff near the highpoint. Still, it was over 9 miles so a good workout. Will go after Vaca Peak in the a.m. and Copernicus after that before we head to Ventura and a visit with my wife's relatives.

Fire Road
Easy hike up the trail, then the fire road. Lots of rock climbers out and about.

standard route
Was the first one up the mountain on a warm Memorial Day Sunday. Excellent views of the Napa valley. Make sure you visit the Napa county hp to the south! Lots of people coming up on my way down.

Fire roadis 99% of the hike and pretty dull. Nice views from the top. Interesting old outhouse on the summit.
