You are cordially invited to start the new year off in proper style with a full moon hike up and around Russell Peak in Orinda. We will meet this Friday, Jan 1, at 7:30pm at the Mariposa trailhead off Panorama Drive for a 3 mile loop hike along rolling grassy ridges overlooking steep canyons. This hike could be a bit muddy since there is some rain forecast so wear some good shoes - but it will be worth it for all the lushness that winter rains bring to the hills. We will have some drinks at the top. As always, please RSVP and do let me know if you need/have a ride to offer. Feel to bring like-minded acquaintances.
Directions: Take the Upper Happy Valley exit off Highway 24, cross under the freeway merging onto Acalanes Rd, turn right immediately onto El Nido Road and left at your first opportunity onto Happy Valley. At 0.6 miles the road will jog left and then right. Shortly thereafter it will dead-end. Turn right on Happy Valley and drive 0.6 miles to Panorama Drive. Park wherever you can (it's a residential neighborhood so keep quiet) and walk to the top of Panorama Drive.
