HIKE.....if there is considerable rain and we need a dry surface for a

prepared for Winter weather conditions. It is up to the weeks leader
to make the decision to use this hike.

Tuesday
AM, May 13th
It
is a favorite this week!! Chabot EBRPark at Marciel Gate (actually
it is the parking area/bathroom just before the family camp!) for a fabulous,
winding trek through the woods, beside the water and up to the peak for
a lovely overview of the Southern end of the Bay!!
Watch
the Eucalyptus nut pods....I call them "roller balls" that are
everywhere at this time of year! They can be a slipping/falling
hazard for sure!! The drive to the trailhead is a delight as you
wind behind Redwood and Chabot Parks into an area you would think was
in the Sierras!!
Soak
up the Nature of it all and enjoy the serenity of seeming to be far, far
from the crowded city!
Anda
is scheduled to be your leader this week and will meet the Alameda group
at the ParknRide.
The
Alameda carpool group will leave the Bayfarm ParknRide at 8:30 sharp to
arrive at the trailhead a bit after 9:00 AM.
Come
on out and TAKE A HIKE!!!
Wednesday
AM, May 14th
It
is another week to hike in beautiful, diverse Redwood EBRPark beginning
at Redwood Gate!! The Stream Trail as well as French trail are always
favorites and really very hard to "beat"! The giant Redwoods,
the winding single track trail, the varied terrain........maybe water
in the "Stream"??? It will be fabulous, renewing and perhaps
you will find some wildflowers....look carefully, they can hide in this
shady paradise!
Jean
is back in town and will be your leader for this weeks hike and will meet
the group at theTrailhead.
The
Alameda carpool group will leave the Bayfarm ParknRide promptly at 8:30
and should be at the trailhead easily by 9:00am.
Enjoy
your time in the peaceful and beautiful Redwood forest!!
