Garrapata State Park is comprised of a long strip of land along the coast and then a trail that moves inland, up a mountain. My brother and I drove through the coastal part of the park at sunset when the late evening sun illuminated the ice plants. I hope to go back one day to hike up the mountain!

McNee Ranch State Park is part of Montara Beach State Park. The best map that I have found is actually the map put out by the San Mateo County Park system.

Quarry Park is an old quarry that has been converted into a county park. In 2014, the park acquired additional land through the Wicklow Property. The hike that I went (about 3 miles) on was through a vast eucalyptus forest. It was not only beautiful but also fragrant. What a treat!

Angel Island State Park is only accessible by ferry from Tiburon and San Francisco. It was a bit of a drive for me to get to Tiburon, but it was well worth it! This was an amazing hike and an amazing experience!

This 10-mile loop winds its way across both sides of Skyline Highway, offering breath-taking views of Santa Cruz mountains from the Long Ridge side and a densely forested hike on the Upper Stevens Creek side. The latter descends past Table Mountain to a beautiful canyon and offers glimpses of the East Bay’s Diablo Range.
