went walking/hiking in tilden park with liana.
parked up at inspiration point, and did a loop hike of:
(according to the map thing)
nimitz way –> bay area ridge trail –> east bay skyline trail –> peak trail (w/minor detour to peak) –> sylvan trail –> loop road –> some pavement –> wildcat gorge trail –> curran trail –> car.
for a total of ~5.1 miles, with a major guesstimate of ~600 ft of elevation gain. the peak of wildcat mountain is at 1211′.
all the trails in the part are short. i kept looking at the map and expecting things to be much longer, cause i am used to the maps from the white mountain guide 😉 the trails here are packed dirt (with amazing networks of cracks in places, due to contraction), and are nice and easy to walk, very much unlike white mountain hiking trails.
