You won't see either Barack Obama or John McCain on this Election Day Hike, but Wendy promises the following: "Today we take a different route from a familiar trailhead to make a 4.6 mile loop. To cut half a mile off, leave your car at the Muddy Hollow parking lot and ride with a friend to the trailhead. We get our exercise on the uphill before lunch and then stroll downhill to complete the loop."Directions: Take Sir Francis Drake Boulevard west to Olema. Turn right on Route1, then make an immediate left onto Bear Valley Rd. Continue past Park Headquarters (turn in if you need a restroom) and go left on Limantour Road. Turn left at the sign for the youth hostel. Follow that road until you see a right turn across a bridge to the Laguna Trailhead by the Clem Miller Education Center. Park in the parking lot. 55 minutes from College of Marin. No restrooms at trail head.
Weather Forecast: Here's the National Weather Service forecast (as of 11 PM Saturday night) for Inverness on Tuesday: A 20 percent chance of showers. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 55. (Click here for an updated forecast).
