SUMMARY:Walking Mt. Tam: Trails of Creativity
DESCRIPTION:Interpretive hike with docent Caryn Lowe.  \n“Methinks that the moment my legs begin to move\, my thoughts begin to flow!” -Thoreau.  \nScience is proving what people have known for ages – going out into nature is one of the best ways to connect with your creative mind. Mt. Tam has been a special place of inspiration for many generations of artists and writers from early settlers from the Hudson Valley to the Bohemian and Beat movements. During this hike you will learn a little bit about this rich history\, what happens here today and hopefully make your own creative connection to Mt. Tam.  There will be a 30 minute stop at West Point Inn to jot down your thoughts or simply pause and take in the view.  \nHIKE ROUTE\nStart at Pantoll Parking Lot;  Old Mine Trail to Mountain Theater; Rock Spring Trail to West Point Inn; Old Stage Road to Pantoll Parking Lot \nDistance (mi): 4.5. Elevation Gain (ft): 500. Moderate.

SUMMARY:Walking Mt. Tam: Trails of Creativity
DESCRIPTION:Interpretive hike with docent Caryn Lowe.  \n“Methinks that the moment my legs begin to move\, my thoughts begin to flow!” -Thoreau.  \nScience is proving what people have known for ages – going out into nature is one of the best ways to connect with your creative mind. Mt. Tam has been a special place of inspiration for many generations of artists and writers from early settlers from the Hudson Valley to the Bohemian and Beat movements. During this hike you will learn a little bit about this rich history\, what happens here today and hopefully make your own creative connection to Mt. Tam.  There will be a 30 minute stop at West Point Inn to jot down your thoughts or simply pause and take in the view.  \nHIKE ROUTE\nStart at Pantoll Parking Lot;  Old Mine Trail to Mountain Theater; Rock Spring Trail to West Point Inn; Old Stage Road to Pantoll Parking Lot \nDistance (mi): 4.5. Elevation Gain (ft): 500. Moderate.
