Fort Funston, SF - Feb 9th, 2009



You are invited to join on a full moon-lit hike along the beach at Fort Funston this Monday, Feb 9th. Fort Funston is located along a rugged stretch of coastal headlands, sand, and dunes south of ocean beach in San Francisco. Formerly a battery emplacement and Nike base, it's now a part of the GGNRA. We'll hike through the Fort south toward San Mateo County onto the beach to enjoy the ocean air and moonlit waters. Please plan to arrive at 8:30pm; our hike will not be long -- probably a mile each way with little to no elevation gain. Refreshments will be served at the turnaround spot. Feel free to invite like minded individuals. The weather forecast calls for some cloudiness, some winds, and perhaps some light showers so dress appropriately. However, despite the inclement weather, the moon is scheduled to make an appearance and we will look forward to finding a good spot to enjoy that view.

Directions: Take I280 southbound from San Francisco to Exit 49 for Junipero Serra/John Daly Blvd. Turn right (west) on John Daly Blvd and drive 1.4 miles to CA 35 (Skyline Blvd). Turn right (north) on CA 35 and drive past John Muir Drive, then take the first right (signed Fort Funston). Bear right and continue to the parking lot. click here for Google Map
