Starting up Mount Sutro from the west side at Seventh Ave. and Warren, first a few blocks trek up Warren: 1
Then there’s the Oakhurst Lane stairway with about 353 steps: 2 thru 10
There’s a way out to Oak Park Dr. partway up: 11, 12
Continuing up Oakhurst. A few people were using this as a Stairmaster as I ascended: 13 thru 24
Top of it at Crestmont: 25, 26, 27
Turn left: 28
To get up into Sutro Forest from Crestmont, the West Ridge Trail is not marked at street level. Scramble up this way: 29, 30, 31
The West Ridge’s steepish first part up to the Historic Trail: 32 thru 39
Historic Trail: 40, 41
Now to continue up the West Ridge for a second block, a shortcut to the summit: 42 thru 48
There’s a way around this log and rocks but I like climbing up alongside them, having done this for years: 47 thru 51
West Ridge Trail continuing to the summit: 52 thru 59
Some parts of trails were muddy from fogdrip, but the summit was very dry. Lots of planting flags with cleared-out spaces at the summit. Whatever they’ve planted hasn’t yet come up, same as last visit. Maybe after we’ve had some rain there’ll be results… How about a summit sea of California poppies?: 60 thru 70
Winding down the North Ridge Trail to the Mystery Trail: 71 thru 79
Mystery Trail: 80 thru 91
Can anyone enlighten me as to why that East Ridge Trail barrier is still here where the East Ridge meets the Mystery Trail partway up? It’s been months now with no obvious hazardous conditions noticed. Assume it’s still the same at the summit at that East Ridge trailhead: 92
East Ridge down to the road and Aldea Community Center: 93 thru 99
Aldea Community Center: 100, 101, 102
Along the road on the pedestrian walkway curving down to the lower parking lot and the top of the north stairs: 103 thru 106
North stairway to its foot at Medical Center Way behind the UCSF buildings on Parnassus (136 steps): 107 thru 119
