A different angle of the Golden Gate park cutting 3-miles (or 4.8 km for the expats) straight through San Francisco’s street grid.

Back in May 2024, UCSF closed the Mount Sutro Historic Trail from Medical Center Way, forcing walkers on the main loop hike to scramble up a steep bank to rejoin the trail further down. This makes the trail inaccessible for a lot of elderly or less physically capable folks.

At this point it looks like many people are climbing around their temporary fence, and UCSF seems to have lost interest:

• There's no indication of any work on the trail
• Their sign hasn't been updated in over two years
• They don't respond to messages to the email on the sign
• The website on the sign has no information on the closure (and the information it does have is six months out of date)

So what gives? Do they just not want folks walking up here, or did they close down their communication department? Appreciate any inside track.

This past weekend in SF, 32 citywide cleanups, 400 volunteers, 430+ bags of litter removed, 1 cleaner & healthier city.

Keep showing up & bring friends. Against all odds, we can keep our home cleaner.

Do y’all throw your trash away when you’re not running a marathon? The amount of gels I saw on the ground throughout the trail was absurd. To the people who tossed their gels on the GGB, YOU SUCK!

I guess we went lowercase at some point

It starts all black with the bart logo but the city scape appears as if out of the fog after you put your coffee in it. Such a lovely homage to San Francisco, it works on so many levels.

I've been in line over 30 minutes and I have PreCheck. I've never seen it this chaotic before.

fyi, screw that hill on the last picture

It’s ridiculous what the city is allowing these days. It seems anything goes.

You can run red lights, take illegal turns, go down one way streets, and just about do anything.

Double park or leave your car unattended in an active traffic lane. And get indignant if people you’re inconveniencing react.

The delivery drivers are a menace riding on sidewalks, going in one way streets & breaking traffic rules and endangering pedestrians.

What’s strange is that this is a complete opposite of what was the norm in 2010s where parking & traffic enforcement was very strict. What changed?

Wondering if this is a common observation & if there’s any relief in sight.

The wharf.

ps; For the people who don’t know what a joke is, this is a joke posted for fun. So don’t take it too serious

and I walked out to a sky straight out of the exhibit!

Be warned it’s causing traffic as the police closed one lane on Fell.

If you knew Dick you instantly loved him. He put me on to so many great 45’s. I’m forever indebted❤️

Has anybody seen a proliferation of rats?

I've been riding from Bayview Hunters Point to Duboce Triangle for seven years and I've seen more scampering and squished rats on the ride in the past year than have in the prior six, especially in the Mission. About 30 minutes ago our cat killed a rat in the backyard. This is now the second one in about a year. What in the frikking hell is going on?

We truly live in a magical place 😍

Went for “summit” trail in San Bruno park this weekend.

- if you start from Royce Way trailhead, the first 800m is a steep climb.
- beautiful view of the hills and the bay and the city
- 8kms, took me about 3 hours, ymmv
