Mountain Day Hike + Yoga
RSVP here
Fall is the air! “Mountain Day” first whispered then reverberated across a crisp pre-dawn morning. Join us on a traditional fall hike beloved by the MHC community. Susan and May will host a hike up one of the most recognized landmarks in SF Bay: San Bruno Mountain. Summit Loop promises unforgettable panoramic views of the bay, ocean, downtown, and surrounds. The loop is 3.6 miles in length with anticipated completion in 2 hours.
On the morning of October 6th, meet up at 9:45 AM, San Bruno Mountain State & County Park (555 Guadalupe Canyon Pkwy, Brisbane, CA 94005), $6 parking fee. Carpooling is highly recommended and can be coordinated by organizers. Free street parking is available at Crocker Gate Trailhead (Old Guadalupe Trail, Daly City, CA 94014), which will add about a mile to the meet up spot inside the park.
Option: Bring a yoga mat for a bonus 30 minute vinyasa flow lead by Susan at trail’s end. Mats stay in the car and will be retrieved after the hike to participate.
Additional information: no dogs allowed, even on leash. Bring water and a hat, as most of the trail is open with little shade.
When: Oct 6, 2024 9:45 AM PDT
Where: San Bruno Mountain State & County Park
Contact: Susan Tom ’98 and May Chen ’21
