Hike with Yidventure

Posted by challahbackgirl on July 7, 2009

Purisima Creek Redwoods Hike: Short & Long Options

Sunday, July 12, 2009
10am
Park & Ride at S Corner of 280 & 84, Woodside, Ca

The first part of the hike is approximately 4.8 miles with 1,200 feet of elevation change (In other words, we will go down 1,200 feet and have to return. For comparison, the Wunderlich hike was 1,000 feet of elevation change.)

Beginning hikers are very welcome on this part of the trip. We are happy to accommodate any hiking speed!

We will do a loop and return to the trail head around 1:30pm. Those who wish to end the day here should be able to get back to their cars at the Park & Ride around 2pm. Please bear in mind, because we will adjust our pace for beginners, that these are just estimates.

For those who want to continue, please pack a lunch. We will drive around to a different area of the park to do a different loop of around 7 miles and 1,400 feet elevation change. This part of the hike is only for those who feel they can maintain a pace of around 2 miles per hour. We should finish around 6pm.

If anyone is interested in doing only the second part of the hike, please let me know in advance, and we can work out a meeting plan.

This site doesn’t describe the trails we will be taking, but it does give a general idea of the park: http://www.bahiker.com/southbayhikes/purisima.html

Wunderlich Park Hike ‘n’ Stroll–Sunday, May 31st at 10am

Posted by jewsnextdor on May 27, 2009

Wunderlich Park Hike ‘n’ Stroll

Sunday, May 31,2009

10am

10am. Meet  @ Wunderlich Park, 4040 Woodside Road, Woodside.

10:15 sharp. Hike takes off. Don’t be late!

Jews’ Next Dor, the young adult group of Congregation Beth David (Saratoga) and the young adult group of Congregation Kol Emeth (Palo Alto), and Yidventure (Bay Area) are going for an 90 minute easy hike and stroll in Wunderlich Park. All Jewish 20 & 30 somethings are invited to join them!

Wunderlich Park features redwood forest, open meadows, beautiful oaks and madrones. The trail is hilly but not really steep, and we’ll hike at a pace that is mellow, groovy, and conducive to conversation.  Event covers 5 miles, with 600 feet of elevation. Admit it.  You want to get out. The woods are beautiful, and the air smells great. Hiking boots and a bottle of water recommended but sneakers okay.  RSVP to JewsNextDor [at] beth-david [dot] org. Check out the Facebook Event too.

Directions: To reach Wunderlich Park, take Woodside Rd. (Hwy 84 West) exit from I-280.  Go 2.7 miles west towards the hills.  Look for the small brown entrance sign on your right. This sign is easy to miss, so note your odometer at I-280. When you get to the parking lot, look for the guy or gal with the clipboard. Parking is free but can be tight, so carpooling is encouraged.
