Muir Beach

The hike starts at the parking lot for Muir Beach in Marin County, and immediately climbs into the nearby hills, where we'll be treated to sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean, the North Bay, and glimpses of San Francisco: http://www.bahiker.co... Distance and difficulty: This is a moderate hike that climbs about 900 feet from the trailhead. Seasoned hikers may consider it moderately easy, but because of the elevation changes and distance it will require some stamina. Total distance, out and back, will be about 9 miles. This is the preliminary plan for our hike, but some of the details may change as we get closer to the date. The hike should last about 3-1/2 hours, depending on the number of pauses. In general, we'll plan to go at a moderately slow pace to enjoy the view, enjoy the wildlife and plant life, and to take photos.

    I went to this place on 2/25. We could not find a parking spot even 2 miles from the parking lot. So we returned back. I would love to join if someone can give me a ride.

    Anybody willing to drive, we can share the gas money. My car is two door so might be little uncomfortable. Lets take 1 car since we are only 4 people. Do let me know.

    Here is the trail map:

    http://www.nps.gov/applications/parks/goga/ppMaps/map-mah...

    Getting there:
    From US 101 in Marin County, take the CA 1/Shoreline Highway exit. After about 0.5 mile, turn left onto Tennessee Valley Road. Go about 1.5 miles to the parking lot at the end of the road.

    Great conversations. We were blessed with cold breeze and bit warm sun which kept us alive till we got back.
