North Sonoma Mt, 13 miles, 2750 ft elev. gain

We meet in North Sonoma Mountain Regional Park . Google map shows right location if you enter address 5297 Sonoma Mountain Rd, Santa Rosa.
There is large parking there, but carpool is recommended as usual.
Last time we hiked there in Nov 2020.
This park has only 2 trails: Vista trail that ends near special Bay trees and North Sonoma Mountain Ridge Trail that end near Mountain. So we'll hike first Vista trail out and back and then take North Sonoma Mountain Ridge Trail and then take Hayfield tr and mountain trail to reach Mountain top where we'll have lunch break. We'll return through Jack London park taking CowanMeadow tr and Hayfield tr and then repeat North Sonoma Mountain Ridge Trail
Our pace: 2.5 -2.8 per mile. Hike's length and elevation gain is based on AllTrails route estimate. Real one can be longer 1-2 miles .
It is good to have >2.0L water, sturdy hiking shoes , layers clothes ,rain gear, and lunch food.
It is not good idea to join the hike if you don't plan to complete full route.
Contact me using private meetup messages or comments in case you have questions. I may help with carpool options.
