Braved the four buses that I take to get me up to the bridgeviewing area; fortunately short waits for all today.
Turned to the east where a sign says "Steep Slope" for the trail to the picnic tables, but this is currently closed out to the other end of the short low-overhead walkers' tunnel (first two pix).
However, the main, scenic, curvy, paved Battery East Trail is walkable as is the stairway down to Crissy Field (last three pics).
Continued on the rocky trail below the Presidio Promenade. Out at the other end noticed the sidewalk ahead was closed up to and beyond Crissy Field Overlook due to construction.
Had to head downhill all the way to Crissy Field, then started back up. Couldn't go via the uphill route east as that was blocked off as well (used to take this around to the Main Post before the Disney Museum existed). Paused to gaze up at the old and new bridge approaches that are now side by side, then continued south up to the Park Trail.
Up the Cemetery Overlook steps through the peaceful forest. Out to Washington from the Overlook area, but crossed the street this time at Deems for the Bay Area Ridge Trail on the Spire side. It's much nicer walking through the forest above the vehicle street. This way it seemed a shorter distance out past the east edge of the golf course to the Arguello Gate.
