Hiking and climbing mountains inspired me into this life philosophy - LIFE IS A MOUNTAIN. Every step you make leads to summit. You may be forced to turn around or change routes for any cause, never know. But, stay focused and look forward. The mountain will be there always. Pace yourself and reach "your" summit, for every step counts. Enjoy the view and feed your soul as it comes along. Life is a journey, not a destination. Life is like climbing a mountain.....
Explore
beautiful Tiburon by visiting Old St. Hilary's and hiking through Old St.
Hilary's Open Space Preserve and Ring Mountain Open Space Preserve.
Old St. Hilary's is Tiburon’s iconic hillside landmark. It was originally a
mission church named for St. Hilaire, Bishop of Poitiers. The church was built
as a place of worship for local railroad workers in 1888. The building retains
significant architectural importance because it is one of the few remaining
Carpenter Gothic churches to survive in its original setting. Hiking up Old St.
Hilary's Open Space Preserve offers wildflowers along the trail and
breathtaking views in all directions from the top.
Ring Mountain Open Space Preserve is located on the west side of the Tiburon
peninsula and can be hiked from several access points. The best approach is to
start at the trailhead on Paradise Drive and follow the Phyllis Ellman Loop
Trail to the top. Views of San Francisco and the entire Bay Area from the top
are stunning. Ring Mountain Open Space was preserved to benefit future
generations and saved from development due to the efforts of concerned citizens
led by local conservationist Phyllis Ellman.
