About this event

We meet outside of 700 John Muir Drive, San Francisco along the Lake Merced Trail at 5:00 p.m. There is plenty of street parking, and the 58 bus passes close by every 30 minutes. Together, we walk up to the Observation Deck at Fort Funston, where we tend to stop for a bit to chat, watch for dolphins and whales, gaze in awe at the at the hang gliders and paragliders flying overhead, and enjoy the golden hour (or admire the fog). This walk, which is just under 2 miles total, entails incredible views of Lake Merced, the ocean and coastline, San Bruno Mountain, Twin Peaks, Mount Davidson, and even the Golden Gate Bridge. -The weather can be anything from warm and sunny to cold and windy, so it's best to wear layers. -Some neighbors and regulars don't check Meetup or register, so there may be more participants than officially registered. -If I can't attend on a given day, I cancel the official event on Meetup. However, some folks still tend to gather (same time, same place). -Some folks come every week, some every few months, and some only once. Join us any time. -Muchos de nosotros también hablamos español
