Mt. Tam Redux -- Sunday Nov 11?

The sky is clear. I can see Mt. Tam from my house and I hear it calling me. The weather radar is clear of showers too.

Will anyone be at the bridge at 9:30?

Private Roads

There is a parking lot south of the bridge. Also, there are plenty of places to park in the Presidio right near the bridge. There's no need to pay for parking.
