The hike was a little bit more difficult than I expected.
In my experience the most challenging part was getting to the trailhead. you have to specify in your GPS that you want Corte Madera Trailhead. Which will have you exit Buckman Springs Road off the 8. Take you through some streets to a metal gate with a heart. To the left is the small parking area maybe 8 cars fit there. Start past the metal gate and walk through the shaded area with trees. The enviroment changes a lot throughout the trail. You start any very shaded area then you head up into an area with high bushes then some dirt and then you're almost in a desert type atmosphere and then you end up around pine trees. there are many "lookout" spots through the trail. Once you pass the pine tree area and some large boulders the trail becomes small and almost non existent. Once you get to the top you have to look around a little bit for the box and sign.
The hike is beautiful and worth the time. Although this was difficult I am definitely coming back. My 20 lbs Boston Terrier made it.
