Parking lot at Fort Funston
8am –
This is a 15-mile hike along the Double Cross Trail, starting at Fort Funston and ending at Pier 23. We will begin at 8pm from the Fort Funston parking lot, and the finish time will depend on the pace of the Scouts.
It may be easiest to take public transportation or an Uber to the starting point and then home again, unless a couple of parents are able to help with drop-off at the start and provide rides home afterward.
