What will we see on this hike? Wendy doesn't reveal those secrets, but here's the plan for this trek:
We’ll meet at Bear Valley and carpool to Sky Trail. From there we’ll go down the lovely shady Old Pine to Bear Valley. We’ll need some people who are not in a rush to drive people back to Sky Trail. (Restrooms at Bear Valley, none at Sky Trail trailhead but some as we pass Coast Camp).
The National Weather Service forecast for Olema is patchy fog before 11 am, otherwise, mostly sunny, with a high near 72. (It may be slightly cooler when we start out near the coast; click here for an updated forecast).
Here's the hike and map for this area from the Martin's book, Hiking Marin. Note that their hike is 7.3 miles long and goes all the way south to Divide Meadow before looping back north to the visitor center. Other, shorter hikes can be taken by turning east and hiking down to Bear Valley at other places along the Sky Trail, and we may taking one of these more leisurely options:
