Tennenbaum, and Carla Palmer.
Enjoying the trails vicariously, Denise Rehse and Debi Devitt transcribed countless hours of taped notes. Ben Pease drew the excellent maps and made valuable comments and suggestions based on his extensive knowledge of Bay Area trails. Kate Hoffman and Jed Manwaring visited some of the East Bay parks included in this book and provided updated material.
On a sad note, two people involved with my first book, East Bay Trails, have since passed away. Dorothy L. Whitnah, a Wilderness Press author, reviewed my original outline and kept me informed of East Bay happenings. Galen Rowell, a great photographer and East Bay native, wrote the book’s foreword.
Finally, thanks to my wife, Maggi, for her love and support.
