"I started my hike at 2:00pm and got backl to the car at 7:30pm. I hiked most of the day and ran for about an hour. It was a gorgeous day with perfect temperatures for a long hike. I watched part of the Sunset on Hawk Hill and finished it on Lower Hawk Hill. This was close to the longest hike I have done in the Marin Headlands. I got back to the car after dark and then decided to shed the backpack and do the last two peaks (Peak 197 and Peak 360) after dark with a headlight on. This completes my 50 Peak Challenge and I really appreciate the effort that was put in to getting this challenge set up. It was one of the coolest things I have done." — jeffreybossaller • Feb 25, 2023
"Marin Headlands 50 Peak Challenge finish! Took south slopes offtrail route to this stunning summit. Strong but warm winds on the ridge all the way up. Great views to the south and out toward Rodeo Beach. The offtrail route up to Hill88 got a bit bushwacky in places but (hopefully) no poison oak. Finished off with a trailrun over Wolf Ridge and down to Rodeo Beach. Huge surf, winds were gusting! Have a slight headache cinched hat down so tightly. " — scott • Feb 13, 2023
"It was raining the entire time and like a dummy I forgot my jacket at home. I was in shorts and a t-shirt. It was cold but I was hanging in there just fine until I got back to the car and stopped moving. Then the shivering began. It was fun for sure, but next time I do something like this on a rainy day I will definitely have a jacket with me!" — jeffreybossaller • Feb 4, 2023
"I took Tennessee Valley Trail to an un-named trail right by the beach. I then took Wolf Ridge to the top and came down on the Coastal Trail. Nice hike, with excellent views!" — jeffreybossaller • Dec 11, 2022
"South Marin Highlands Loop from Morning Sun Trail including Richardson, Slacker Hill, Hawk Hill, Hill 88, FAA Hill, and other minor bumps. A beautiful fall day that made me want to get out on the Pacific." — klotito • Nov 27, 2020
"Late start on a warm day, 81 at time of parking near Rodeo Beach. I had planned for more summits as part of a loop around Fort Cronkhite. I cut the southern portion of the route short and looped around the lagoon. Almost stepped on a garter snake that was sunning it’s self on the trail. Lost of amazing birds around the lagoon, blue herons, pelicans, mallards, snowy egrets, greater egrets and cormorants. Along with the high temps the air quality was very poor. Smoke and ash from wild fires to the north made for poor visibility. " — Mtstalker • Oct 1, 2020
"Started at Rodeo Beach, hiked to Hill 88 then through Tennessee Valley to Muir Beach, to Organic Farm, and to Tennessee Beach. From Tennessee Beach up and back to Rodeo Beach. Golden Gate National Recreation Area. " — runningvegan • Jun 23, 2018
"Did an awesome 14 mile hike in the Marin Headlands today with NorCal Women Adventurers. Started in Sausalito and went over to Hawk Hill. From there we hiked to Point Bonita, but the lighthouse was closed :(. Got to see some harbor seals, though! We had lunch at the Marine Mammal Center before hiking up to Hill 88 descending to the cars." — kaylam87 • Feb 24, 2018

"What started as an afterthought, turned out to be pretty cool. The summit is all elevation, was my 3rd peak of the day. The views are amazing. Take time to look at the artistry in the abandoned buildings. Great views of the ocean and San Fran. Great area to spend a day. " — puddlepirate • Dec 28, 2016
