Portola Redwoods Trail Run -- Sunday, Sept. 15

In September, the Monthly Trail Run ventures deep into the Santa Cruz Mountains directly over the hill from Palo Alto. Water will likely still be flowing in the creeks and falls, and there are plenty of lush ferns and majestic redwood trees. This is a mostly-shaded course with a waterfall and a historic cabin site (with a who-dunnit mystery). Our route will also include neighboring Pescadero Creek County Park -- two parks for the price of one! This is a very beautiful course, and well-worth the slightly longer drive. And, as an added bonus, the route has been improved over last year's -- much less poison oak, and now including The Big Tree! For more details, see here.
