Trail Trek Hike to Rodeo Lagoon - May 15

Saturday, May 15th
Meet at Brookvale Elementary at 9:30 am for carpool / departure
The drive is over 50 miles, and over an hour so carpooling makes sense. We can gather everyone’s cell number so we can call each other if someone gets lost.

Rodeo Lagoon

Rodeo Lagoon

I visited Rodeo Lagoon this weekend and found the Richmond bridge route easy to follow. This is the route I suggest coming into Sausalito Marin County.

We will eventually meet at the visitor center which is a converted church. The Visitor center is a perfect start to our hike as it is rich in educational info regarding the history of the area. There is also a picnic area in the front.

Up the road is the Nike Missile site. Unfortunately it is only open to the public the 1st sat of the month. I just happened to be there so I got a tour.

Don’t despair!! There is plenty to see. There are other open bunkers to see. Our scouts will love it. These bunkers are just a very short drive from the visitor center. The area is a favorite with cyclist so be mindful of them.

This is a beautiful area. The ocean, mountains, spectacular views of the Golden Gate Bridge, natural history and the former military history make for a beautiful day. Be sure to bring you’re camera. Plan for lunch after the hike in the picnic area in front of the visitor center.

Fire Station Visit

On February 3, our Dens visited the Fremont Fire Station in Brookvale for a “Go See It” event and tour. The friendly and informative officers showed us the fire station, the engines and vehicles, and of course the fire pole!
