Pac Striders July 29, 8:30am - Wildcat Canyon via Lone Oak

This Sunday, we will be doing a lovely out and back Wildcat Canyon run, starting from the Lone Oak picnic area. The furthest turnaround point in Richmond is about 4.5 miles out, for a total run of 9 miles. There are some rolling hills along the way, as well as some water stops.

DIRECTIONS: To reach the start, take the Albany/Buchanan Ave. exit from I-80. From the east, turn left at the stop sign which will put you on a road that you follow for about .25 miles where it curves around a bit and puts you on Buchanan. From the west, a right at the stop light puts you on Buchanan. Once on Buchanan, your head toward the hills. After crossing San Pablo, Buchanan becomes Marin Ave. Stay on Marin. At one point you will hit a traffic circle. Go half way around and turn up the hill to stay on Marin. Turn left on Spruce and continue until the stop sign at the intersection with Grizzley Peak Rd. Go straight through the intersection and take an immediate left onto Canon Dr. Right a the stop sign onto Central Park Dr. then left onto Lone Oak.
