This weekend, a few of us went to hang out at Angel Island. This little island is situated between the coast of San Francisco and Marin County. We had to take two separate ferries to get there. First, we got a ride to Tiburon, a beautiful coastal city, and from there took another ride to Angel Island.
We decided to hike all the way to the top of Mt. Livermore. It’s only 800 ft elevation, so it was a pretty easy challenge. However, we made it a whole lot difficult by turning this hike into a “climb” for half the way up. Some genius, who shall remain nameless, thought it was a good idea to cut through the forest, ignoring the trail. So we ended up climbing our way through the mountain directly upwards at like 60˚ angle. At halfway point to the top, we finally intersected the proper trail. Staying on it from then on, we hiked our way to the top-most point.
It was quite exhilarating when we reached the top. The cool breeze refreshed our sweaty bodies. You could see a panoramic view of all of San Francisco, Oakland, Berkeley, Richmond, Tiburon, Sausalito, and the rest of Marin. Even though we didn’t have time left to check out other stuff afterwards, we had an awesome time on the island. Happy Cinco de Mayo!
