See all- Saturday Morning Hike on Tam! 2B Beat the Heat on Beautiful TrailsMountain Home Inn, Mill Valley, CA
From Mountain Home, there are many wonderful options and we will take a route that keeps us cool. Approximately 8 miles and about 1400' elevation gain.
In order to register for this hike, please do so on this Sierra Club link.
More info when you register on the link provided above.If you do not register on the Sierra Club link, you are not registered for this hike. We use Meet up for getting the word out and so you can organize carpools in the comments section.
End time approximate. Steady pace.
We may (especially near water or when birds are singing) request a few quiet zones so that we can enjoy the sounds of nature.
This is a small group hike, please only RSVP if you really want to come and keep RSVP current.
We respect and admire bridges and sometimes stop for a stretch. We will pause occasionally to enjoy some POI's of the mountain. Even so, this is excellent exercise.
We start on time.Important: ALWAYS check this site the morning before you leave of in case of adjustments or change due to weather, air quality or whim.
We start on time. At this time of morning, there's usually good parking at the parking lot across from Mountain Home Inn. But, if the lot is full, there is parking on either side of the lot. Before the parking lot there is overflow parking on the same side of the street and a short walk to our meet spot. After the parking lot, bear R towards the fire station and there's parking along that road as well.
Be sure to click to sign the liability waiver when you sign up.
Note: if the hike fills and, if you have hiked with me before, reach out and I'll get you added in.
A group of ladybugs is called a "Loveliness" of ladybugs and, yes, we will probably see them as well as many other wonderful offerings of nature even in early summer. Our route will be determined by the weather so we stay cool.

Learn about the SF Port’s Waterfront Resilience Program to address sea level rise as we walk along the Bay with Sierra Club members.
We’ll meet at 9:30am at the entrance of Pier 7 (https://maps.app.goo.gl/MizLcLtX2b843o9CA) and spend the next 3.5 hours on a walking tour led by San Francisco Port’s staff. This guided tour will provide more context for the Port’s plan to defend San Francisco from current and future flood risk caused by 3 to 7 feet of sea level rise expected by 2100. As we walk between points-of-interest in the walking tour attendees can chat with other Sierra Club members.
Expect roughly 3 miles of leisurely walking over 3.5 hours. The route will follow the (mostly) paved Bay-side sidewalks with (mostly) level ground.
For those interested, we’ll continue socializing with an optional lunch at Spark Social SF with food/drinks available for purchase from local food trucks. The Sierra Club will buy cover the cost of some light snacks for attendees. You can also bring food. Spark Social SF’s address is 601 Mission Bay Boulevard North, San Francisco, CA 94158 (https://search.app.goo.gl/fuUaE6z).
