Las Trampas Hike Great Time For All

The Las Trampas hike, sponsored by the East Bay Regional Parks District on Sunday 7-22-07 was a great time for all!

The hike involved going to the edge of the Faria property and looking down from 1200 feet on to the property below. The view from up there was spectacular! The East Bay Regional Parks Guide told everyone that they were the first people other than the owners of the property to have ever been there ever, except maybe native Indians.

Beverly Lane, the East Bay Regional Park District Director attended and hiked with the group to the top of the mountain. The EBR Park District recently acquired 250 acres of land adjacent to the Faria property to expand the Las Trampas Ridge public lands.

For those who were not able to be there, this was also a fund raiser to support Sierra Club's North West Specific Plan lawsuit. If you would like to contribute to the fund, send an email to SRCommunity @ Gmail.com, and we will forward your interest in helping Save Your Ridges from over-development.

Note: The contribution is tax deductible.
