Event Details
Submitted by the Event Organizer
Deep within the city of San Francisco a forest grows. It’s a complex one, overrun with invasive vines and other political drama. It’s incredible to hike through, now that the Sutro Stewards have (recently) provided a working trail network. On this forest hike, you’ll see hidden stairways, mysterious artifacts and even freshwater springs as you climb this wooded urban mountain.
Free, but an RSVP is required. Donations are strongly encouraged.
Highlights include cave Indian mythologies, hidden creek, lost pond, university hideaways, weapons system sites, fog & wind, fungus, tree erosion sculptures, native plant meadow, and birdsong. Back in 2013, one couple on this Thinkwalk proposed afterward. Now they’re married. Talk about enchanting forest.
Keep in Mind: This hike takes place rain or shine. Bring lunch food (sharing tradition optional). Hike length: approx. 5 miles. Some steep sections. End near 7th Ave.—easy return by public transit. Maximum 20 people.
