Elevation Gain: 150 feet one-way Accessibility: Hikers, bicyclists, equestrians, and wheelchair users. Equestrians use alternative marked trail. Take a creekside stroll or ride through the undeveloped broad Coyote Creek floodplain. Enjoy pleas- ant rest stops under large shade trees and awesome views of the nearby Coast Range. The trail pro- vides an opportunity to appreciate what the Santa Clara Valley looked like before it was developed. The entire route follows a level paved trail (with a separate unpaved path for horses). Much of the trail is in the sun, so plan the trip for cooler weather. This trail description is excerpted from the 2019 Guidebook. For details on all trails, trailheads and more buy the book from Wilderness Press.

I enjoyed last year’s campaign so much that I couldn’t wait to get started again. Together, we raised $8.7 million for our favorite charities. I am proud to say this was the most we’ve ever raised and the biggest annual increase in the history of the campaign. It was truly a fantastic year, and working with so many wonderful and compassionate volunteers was a tremendous inspiration. In fact, my belief that Californians are the most generous people in the world is stronger than ever, and I know that we can set the bar even higher this year. Thank you for all of your great work, and I look forward to another record-breaking campaign.

  • Presidio Trust Management Plan: Land Use Policies for Area B of the Presidio of San Francisco (PTMP, Or Plan)
    Preface AN AERIAL VIEW OF FORT SCOTT, CAPTURED IN 2001 In 1972, in recognition of its spectacular setting, important historical resources, and rich ecological and scenic attributes, Congress decreed that if the U.S. Army no longer needed the Presidio of San Francisco, it would become part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA), the country’s largest national park in an urban area. In 1989, the U.S. Army announced that the oldest continuously operating military post in the country would be closed, and so the Presidio became a park for the American people. The very characteristics that distinguish the Presidio - its many historic buildings, cultural landscapes, and urban location - also make it expensive to preserve and operate. In 1996, in recognition of the Presidio’s singular character and of the challenges and expense attending its preservation, Congress took a further step and established the Presidio Trust. Congress reasoned that “an innovative public/private partnership that minimizes cost to the United States Treasury” was necessary to 1 oversee the Presidio as a distinct part of the GGNRA. 1 The 1,491-acre Presidio of San Francisco is at the center of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA), which was created by Congress in 1972. The GGNRA legislation ensured that if the military deemed the Presidio excess to its needs, jurisdiction would be transferred to the National Park Service (NPS). In 1989, the Presidio was designated for closure and in 1994, the U.S. Army transferred the Presidio to the NPS. In 1996, the Presidio Trust Act (see Appendix A) gave jurisdiction of the 1,168-acre inland area of the Presidio known as Area B to the Presidio Trust; the NPS continues to manage the shoreline, or Area A.

  • Hello PAWG. a Quick Note to Elaborate More Than Two Minutes Allowed At
    From: Jg To: Tina Hugg; Liz Westbrook Subject: Written comments to LHC PAWG Date: Wednesday, December 18, 2019 3:00:05 PM Hello PAWG. A quick note to elaborate more than two minutes allowed at your last meeting. As mentioned, I've been involved with the Bay Area Ridge Trail Council for ~20 years, as a volunteer, and at various times, a staff member and Board Director. More importantly, I'm a 25 year District resident (Ward 5) and huge fan. As a hiker and cyclist, one of the best ways to enjoy and celebrate Midpen's achievements is a long multi-preserve outing, through the connected network of trails and protected lands. I've long envisioned a great adventure of riding up to Skyline, turning right, and riding the Ridge Trail into San Francisco, mostly off-road. Only a couple significant gaps prevent this. Even greater would be a multi-day trip between San Jose and San Francisco, mostly on trails away from traffic. Only a handful of gaps prevent this. To speak more grandly, only a small number of trail gaps remain to connect Silicon Valley and the Golden Gate via the Ridge Trail (and beyond, to Novato!) La Honda Creek OSP is one of those gaps. I've seen millions of dollars spent to create this preserve, and I've celebrated each acquisition. I have visited via Allen Rd, and it is wonderful, the views to the coast over the central part of the preserve stunning. Yet the trails into and across this heart of the preserve are not yet there.
