The Staircases of Noe Valley
Details
After tackling its northern counterpart on the 8th, we will be in Noe Valley on the 15th. It's a lovely part of town, much of which we have explored before.
This is a newish route through the area, taking in the classics like the Harry Street steps and Billy Goat Hill, but also some of the lesser known open spaces in the neighbourhood.
We did this as a three-hour roam about eighteen months ago; this version cuts out some of the harder ascents in Diamond Heights, but,
as you might expect from the title, there will still be plenty of climbing over the course of two hours, though we will be taking it at a moderate place, and taking our usual meditation breaks on the way around.
Bringing water, snacks, and layers for all the microclimates is the way to go. There's still a small chance of this being rained off - if the forecast if iffy, I will send an email to everyone who has signed up if we have to postpone or cancel.
These roams are offered by donation. They are one way I am able to pay my rent in San Francisco.
Punctuality is always appreciated. Please send a message on the app if you are running a little late - direct messages are best, rather than a comment on the event. I can usually respond to messages before we get underway, but then I put my phone away other than to take pictures.
I know Meetup is notorious for no-shows and late changes of rsvp. I am not as strict as other organisers (we do talk to each other!), but since generally up to half the people who sign up don't show up, my tolerance for repeated flakiness is limited. It is especially unfair to people on the wait list who would like to attend.
