This group is meant for people who have wanted to explore the Bay Area Ridge Trail or who just enjoy hiking and need an excuse. Some hiking experience or at least a reasonable fitness level is expected of you to join us. BEGINNERS PLEASE CHECK THE “ABOUT” MENU FOR ADVICE. For info on the BART system and for trail tips and etiquette see the link below.

Additionally (and the reason for the “More” in the group name), I made up and plan to explore 3 other ridge trail systems: the CART-California Area Ridge Trail, the WART- Western Area Ridge Trail, and the PRRT- the Pacific Rim Ridge Trail. As well and as a way to get beginners in shape, I've started local easy hikes around my neighborhood. These are known as FIT (Fremont Interesting Trails) hikes. Please look in the “About” menu for more details and my overall idea for these three super trail systems and the BART.

Finally, my last interest (although some people may say it is my first) for this group is to explore the micro-breweries of the greater San Francisco Bay Area as we encounter them near our hikes.

DISCLAIMER: You take all risks when joining an event, including of being of reasonable fitness or experience to embark on long hikes like this. I am here just to come up with hiking ideas, show the way, and take head counts before and after and be able to explain if there is a difference.
