| Noondueler | The local peak ![]() Date Climbed: Jun 15, 1993 | |
| Been all over the mountain for years. The route I've done the most is the northeast ridge to the East Peak out of Kentfield via the Windy Ridge. It's one of the quickest ways to the top. | ||

| Nice views from the top, especially with half the bay covered in fog - a nice contrast. | ||

| hiked several times, it's a good way to get some vertical gain within the bay area. favorite route is from stinson beach, through steep ravine trail, and you can cool off afterwards by going for a surf. | ||

| Fairly foggy day, so not a lot of sights. Not a bad hike for being so close to San Francisco though. | ||

| Hiked from the parking lot with my nephew, Spencer. Beautiful warm day. Summitted at 2:45 PM. The temperature here was 25 degrees warmer than it was on the top of Mt. Davidson in San Francisco 2 hours later. | ||

| ClimbingJunkie | Sand to Summit!! ![]() Date Climbed: Mar 26, 2008 | |
| Hiked from Stinson Beach via the Matt Davis trail. Long day at 18 miles round trip but well worth the effort. Great alternative to the typical hike from the parking lot.... | ||

| hikerbryan | Great trails ![]() Date Climbed: Mar 15, 2004 | |
| In my opinion, Mt. Tam has the best trails in the Bay Area. Each side of the mountain has its share of good qualities and the summit affords the best views of the area that I have seen, aside from the view out of the window of a 737 leaving Oakland Airport. | ||

| weeds19 | Great Spot ![]() Date Climbed: Jun 3, 2006 | |
| I really enjoyed the views and the area. It makes me think that living in the Bay area might not be too bad... then I looked at home prices!! | ||

| Great place to train, if you can stomach all the Marin County hot-tubbers. | ||

| huskertriguy | Beautiful Views of Bay Area! ![]() Date Climbed: Oct 28, 2006 | |
| Hiked with Cal Triathlon Team ROUTE: Muir Woods Visitor Center to Pantoll (Ben Johnson & Stapelveldt trails); Pantoll to Mountain Theater (Bootjack Trail); Mountain Theater to West Point Inn (Rock Spring Trail); West Point Inn to "Summit"; Summit to Mountain Home Inn (Hogback); Mountain Home Inn to Muir Wood Vis. Ctr. (Ocean View Trail). This route was difficult enough when keeping pace with the triathlon team. Great route to offer as many diverse views of the region as possible - sweeping vistas, immersion in redwood trees. Descent on Hogback is steep and can work the joints. Clear day, GREAT view of Bay Area. Beauty is most certainly in the eye of the beholder; I suppose if one hoped to escape urban development and gentrification (as imposing and terrible as it is, I acknowledge), one would hit up Diablo or Yosemite. Solitude is best found elsewhere. Hope to hit this on my mountain bike soon. | ||

| Michael Perry | Unbeatable view ![]() Date Climbed: Apr 22, 2007 | |
| Started from Mountain Home Inn in late afternoon, up to the Railroad Grade to the Fern Creek Trail. Very nice and scenic trail. Reached the summit of the east peak just after sunset. Absolutely incredible view, but very cold and windy at the top. | ||

| A spiritual pilgrimage for mountain bikers - thanks to all those hippies riding beach cruisers down Mt Tam back in the day who got it going! | ||

| Did the short hike - but still got soaked. Then drove all the way home to Washington. Would like to have seen the views. | ||
