Last Sunday two Polish friends and I set off for a little excursion outside the city. The goal was to hike Mount Tamalpais, which is the closest peak to San Francisco from the northern side of the Bay Area. The biggest reason for running away from the city was the fog. In the summer usually the whole city is covered with this white, milky, cloudy substance. In fact the SF nickname is "The fog city". There are days when only the eastern part vanishes behind the veil of fog and there are days when the whole Bay Area disappears behind it. But the sun always shines over Mount Tam (yes, it's shortened). We set out for Mount Tam in search of this precious summer sun. First we drove to the parking lot not really far from the peak and we started hiking from there. Most of the mountains in the Bay Area are accessible for cars.
