Quick Silver Almaden Webb Canyon Access

The closer one gets to the top, the more one finds there is no «top.» ~Nancy Barcus
The pouty, British dish of a cupcake Emmalouise B. keeps trying to one up me on review count. Looks like we need to add a quickie here to maintain that edge.
The access for this part of Almaden Quicksilver is off of Webb Canyon Road and Echo Valley. A great place to access because there is ample free street parking. And an embedded neighborhood basketball hoop if you need to practice your «J» ;) (I’m looking at you Nicole D!)
Deer and bucks are ample out here as are the wild turkeys (see my award winning photo). Views are very nice at sunset and with the free street parking this is a nice spot to bend the closed at sunset rule. I bring a flashlight now every evening.
There is a strenuous 6 mile loop that I hike in about a buck thirty or so. You go on the New Almaden trail, Mine Hill and others. You can add more mileage by accessing all of the other trails and their are nice views of the reservoir on the randol and guadalupe trails.
Highly recommended for an outdoor workout!

luv this place… went with the bf that’s twice this week. I’m super sore, totally feeling it, & I’m sure I’ll feel it even more tomorrow! Nice quiet place to hike after work, there are families, couples, & solo people doing the hike. Today I saw some kind of wild life come out of the bushes… kinda scary!
