We drove over to Bolinas this morning for something different—some sightseeing, some geocaching, and mostly some hiking. Our route took us west over the Richmond/San Rafael bridge and then on Highway 1 to Muir Beach. This has got to be one of the crookedest roads around—nearly got sick.
In Stinson Beach we paused for a look around and Karen had a cup of clam chowder at The Sand Dollar restaurant.Our destination was the Palomarin trailhead and a hike to Alamere Falls. We had lovely weather and a nice walk. The last quarter mile of the trail is through heavy undergrowth and the trail is not maintained, so you just have to push through. In areas, poison oak abounds. I don’t think we got any.
After the hike, we headed home through Point Reyes Station. We considered eating dinner at the Station House Cafe, but it seemed expensive, so we settled for a nice pizza at Cafe Reyes.
