We’ll talk creeks and native villages. We’ll uncover secrets of the Duboce mural. (Did you know that the mural is secretly a map?) This walk is a wide look at local geology: where creeks and dunes were and why, where they went, and what about those bedrock hills that have simply disappeared? Were they washed away by the giant floods?
Since it’s a highly active bicycle route, we’ll talk bike politics, street design and street history, including the various freeway proposals and citizen revolts. No matter how much or how little you already know about San Francisco, you’ll find yourself looking at things a new way after this walk.
Feel free to call if you have questions. RSVPs welcome but not required. Snacks will be provided.
