Canyon of Wildflowers

3/26/2018

0 Comments

 

Starting up the east side of Glen Canyon a slightly different way than usual, one of several ways to ascend. 

First, the main westside trail from Bosworth at the south end of the park: 1 thru 9

Crossing  IslaisCreek to the east side: 10

 

Canyon stairs alternate with short dirt trails. 126 steps this time: 11 thru 28

At one of the trail signs, the trail turns for a short south to north stretch. This high-up trail has 17 steps. 

There's now has a spectacular array of wildflowers here: yellow oxalis, yellow mustard flowers, a few wild radish blooms, orange California poppies, and some kind of little purple flowers to the left and right, all on a bed of green. My favorite time of year. 29 thru 43

The trail leads to the last stretch, 92 steps more to Christopher Park in Diamond Heights. 44 thru 64

​Total steps for this route: 235 from the main trail up the east side.

Christopher Park: 65 thru 70


Down one of the short stairways to the Diamond Heights Shopping Center, 15 steps: 71

March Sutro

3/24/2018

0 Comments

 
 
Mount Sutro’s summit next to the concrete benches is now beautifully green with the usual springtime grass, but I'd hoped to see more wildflowers. There's been some clearing nearby with lots of those planting flags around.

Wish they’d do more to encourage my favorite wildflowers  yellow Oxalis, California poppies, yellow mustard flowers, wild radish blossoms, dandelions, and other wild blooms up here.

Noticed a trail closure where the East Ridge Trail meets the trail fork going up, then again at the East Ridge summit trailhead where they’ve added a few wood benches near the big rock.

First up the north stairway (136 steps): 1 thru 4

Along the road: 5, 6, 7 

East Ridge Trail: 8, 9

East Ridge trailhead at the summit: 10, 11

Sutro's Summit:  12 thru 17

Down the North Ridge Trail: 18 thru 40

Along the road again: 41 thru 45

Sutro Tower from the parking lot (permits only): 46

On the trail behind Edgewood Ave. homes. This trailhead is near the top of the stairway ascended earlier: 47 thru 52

Out at Edgewood Ave. This swing at the top of the Farnsworth stairs has been here a long time: 53

Down the Farnsworth steps (149) to Willard: 54 thru 59

Gorgeous Russian

3/22/2018

Visiting a favorite Russian Hill “secret” garden, Redfield Alley between Taylor (east side) and Marion Place above (south side).

Marion used to be a dead-end alley. It starts off as a couple of narrow walks descending from Union. Now it continues down to connect with a neighbor-made garden. It doesn't show that they connect on Google Maps. Go see it in person. 

Marion at Union: 1


Entering Redfield from Taylor: 2 thru 16 

It turns and starts up with two benches, birdhouses, and some steps: 17 thru 37

Back up to Marion and Union: 38 thru 43

Union St.: 44
​

West to Hyde, stopped at the Hyde & Vallejo Minipark: 10 steps: 45 thru 49

Flint St. dead-end at De Forest: 2, 3


From Fint up a steep trail to the Randall Museum’s east steps: 4, 6, 6

Hacking and Chopping

3/5/2018

0 Comments

 

Upon reaching the top of the 62 Simonds Loop stone steps (Presidio east), what used to be surrounded by greenery was now more bare than I'd ever seen it. Including where I used to happily forage for blackberries. I can understand some maintenance is nexessary, but please, just not so much! 

It’s difficult these days to take a hike in this or other parks without coming across dead branches, bare tree stumps, herbicide-spraying notices, bare ground where there used to be beautiful green spaces, or workers actually doing the hacking and chopping at the time. 

Starting off at the Broadway Gate, enjoying the forest and view east: 1 thru 7

Into the Simonds Loop neighborhood and steps down to Lower Simonds Loop: 8 thru 11

Moving west: 12, 13, 14

Above El Polin Spring and out at Inspiration Point Overlook (off Arguello): 15 thru 31

Across Presidio Parkway from Mountain Lake (using the pedestrian underpass) and up to the Marine Cemetery Vista Overlook. 

Several years ago a stairway and boardwalk trail (103 steps counting the stepped boardwalk), benches, a plaque (“Home is the Sailor, Home from the Sea”), and a trail winding down to Battery Caulfield Road: 32 thru 53

Crossing at Battery Caulfield and into another forest (pix 54, 55, 56), at the foot of which you can access the Lobos Creek boardwalk trail that winds out to Lincoln/El Camino del Mar.

Dragonfly

Meandering round the east side of the Fort Scott neighborhood to the Presidio Nursery. Down 30 steps and west across the footbridge, alongside a forested area and Dragonfly Creek. 
​

Nursery stairs: 1

Heading west:  2 thru 10

 The old stone footbridge: 11 thru 15

Fort Scott buildings around the edge of the field: 16 thru 22

Anyone remember the “Presidio Habitats” installations from 2006? This hike reminded me of it so searched for some old pix from back then. My favorites were the yellow wildlife-viewing chairs at Fort Scott. So much fun; wish they were still around. Some THENS: 23 thru 33

And a couple of habitats from Park Trail as well: 34, 35, 36

​Back to the bridge area: 37, 38

    I like meandering around on San Francisco's park trails and public stairways, sometimes taking photos, and enjoying nature and the outdoors.
