Sandy treated the Wednesday hiking group to an encore visit to Tilden Park, including fantastic panoramic views of San Francisco bay that ranged from the Bay Bridge to the Richmond Bridge. Although Wilma missed the hike, she and her grand daughter joined us briefly for lunch at Lone Oak picnic area.
Morris led the Wednesday hiking group on a great foggy tromp through Tilden Park, covering the Seaview, Arroyo, Widcat Gorge, Mineral Springs, Curran, and Meadows Canyon trails.

Kirk led our Wednesday hiking group on a great 10 mile hike of Tilden Park, providing magnificent views of San Francisco and San Pablo Bays, as well as San Pablo Reservoir.

We climbed up through the Berkeley hills, stopping for lunch at the Tilden Park Steam Train picnic area.
