Here's Wendy's description of our last July hike:
"This hike is not a loop, but has incredible ocean views making it well worth the drive! We should see bee plant, seep-spring monkey flower, salmonberries and more. Lunch at a pond with Indian pond lilies, frogs and dragonflies or at Bass Lake."
The National Weather Service forecast for Tuesday at Bolinas is: Patchy fog before 11am. Otherwise, partly sunny, with a high near 69. West wind between 11 and 15 mph. (Click here for an updated forecast).
Directions: Meet at 8:45 at St.Rita to carpool.
Take Sir Francis Drake Blvd. west to Olema. Turn left (south) on Rt. 1. Pass Five Brooks and Dogtown, and take the unmarked right turn towards the town of Bolinas. (If you find yourself going along the shore of Bolinas Lagoon, you've just missed the turn.)
Turn right on Mesa Rd. and follow it to the Palomarin trailhead parking lot. If you're coming from southern Marin you may prefer to take Rt. 1 north, turning left just past the end of the lagoon onto the unmarked road into the town of Bolinas.
Outhouse at trailhead.
The "Coast Trail to Double Point" hike from the Martin's book, Hiking Marin, covers the general area that we'll hike through:
