Pac Striders Weekend Run, sun, Jan 24, 8:45, Inspiration Point

Hi Everyone,
The rain we've already had this week pretty much limits us to the most waterproof runs. Inspiration Point will offer the advantages of asphalt while still enjoying a park trail blessed with nature's beauty.

Bathrooms at the start, but no water that doesn't fall from the sky..

Directions:

From downtown Oakland and points West: go thru the Caldecott tunnel on Hwy 24 to the Orinda/Moraga exit. Turn left at the stoplight onto Camino Pablo, which will turn into San Pablo Dam Rd. Proceed about 2 miles to the traffic light at Wildcat Canyon and Bear Creek Roads. Turn left onto Wildcat Canyon Rd. Go uphill 2.5 miles to the parking lot at the top of the ridge.

From Walnut Creek and points east: Head East on Hwy 24 take the Orinda/Moraga exit and stay right toward Orinda Village. Once on Camino Pablo, proceed as above.

From Berkeley/Albany, Wildcat Canyon Road can be accessed from Grizzly Peak Blvd. via South Park Dr. (closed for newts November 1 - April 1) or Shasta Rd.

Have a good weekend,

Mike
