What's the best place to hike in the summer with alumni friends and ocean and bay breezes? San Francisco! We are enjoying being tourists in our own town by enjoying the City by foot via the Doublecross Trail!

This time we will traverse section two of the Doublecross Trail from Duboce Park to West Portal MUNI station. The distance is five miles with an altitude gain of 850 feet.

Trek along paths unknown to most outsiders, past a long ago rock quarry of radiolarian chert containing marine plankton 100-200 million years old, and up to some of the best vista points in town at Twin Peaks, Tank Hill, and Buena Vista Park.

We will end the hike with lunch at one of the many fast casual spots in West Portal.
