Angel Island Adventure

Join Randy at the San Francisco Ferry Building for a moderate 5-mile scenic hike along wooded trails circling Angel Island. San Francisco Bay breezes should provide a nice hike for a hot day. Bring a lunch for our stop at the picnic area on top of Mount Livermore. This hike will be limited to a maximum of 30 people, so please be prompt in updating your RSVP if you find yourself unable to attend. NO DOGS are allowed on Angel Island.

Hikers are encouraged to take Bart to the Embarcadero, then make the short walk to the Ferry Building. We will meet at Gate B (see map in "Photos" section below) at 10:30am to catch the 10:55am Angel Island ferry. Clipper Card Round Trip tickets are $19.50 ($16 senior). Make sure that you have at least $20 on your Clipper Card. If you are not using Clipper to purchase your ferry ticket, you will need to purchase a ticket at Ferry Building Gate C (see map in photo section of this MeetUp posting). Be sure to purchase a round trip ticket, since no ticket purchase is available on the island. I recommend that you get to the Ferry Building no later than 10:30am to allow sufficient time for worry free ticket purchase. We will be returning to the Ferry Building on the 2:40pm ferry, which will get you back to the Ferry Buildingat 3:10pm.

We will hike at an average to slower pace (25-30 mins per mile) so we can enjoy the experience while we get the heart pumping.
