Sorry, but this hike is over. To see pictures of this hike, please visit Light of Morn.

Join CGF Director Peter LaTourrette and native plant expert Don Mayall for a hike in this very special (and unprotected) area above the east side of Coyote Valley.

We'll hike through serpentine soil habitats that are home to some thirteen rare or endangered native plants, and the last healthy population of the endangered Bay checkerspot butterfly. We'll hike a steep roadway with an 800-foot elevation gain, observing changes in the vegetation as we ascend. On reaching the top we will have ample time to enjoy the spring wildflowers on the ridge and the views of Coyote Valley far below. This is a rare opportunity to see some special privately-owned lands.

Bring water, and a sack lunch to eat on top.

This hike is limited to 25 people; no children under 12.

RSVP by Thursday, April 4 with the CGF office at (650) 968-7243 or Velma@GreenFoothills.org. Rain or wet conditions cancel this hike.

To carpool, meet at the Page Mill/280 Park 'n' Ride at 8 am.
