Original Event Description:
_👻HALLOWEEN PHOTO HIKE👻

Join us for a special edition Halloween-themed night walk on Friday, October 30!

Our walk will take us through Belvedere St, one of SF’s best Halloween neighborhoods. From there, we’ll cut through the hilly streets and arrive at the top of Corona Heights for some amazing night views of the city.

After that, we’ll descend to the Castro to capture street photography of the neighborhood’s most festive weekend. Costumes are highly encouraged!

Since this is a Cameras & Carbs walk, our carb of choice will be candy! Suggested donations of $5 would help cover the costs.

As the title suggests, this is a HIKE, so please wear comfy shoes and be prepared to climb some hills.
