Pantoll Quad Guide Hike: West Point Inn Route (green-highlighted route)

*This hike will start from Bootjack for fewer parking issues.*
Four epic hikes that start/end at Pantoll! That is how Friends of Mt Tam describe their Pantoll Quad hikes. Of course, you can use their pamphlet to hike them on your own, or you can join this series of docent-guided hikes for fully guided experiences! Either way, you can get an "I hiked the Pantoll Quad!" pin from Friends of Mt Tam.
This date features the West Point Inn route, a 4.7-mile loop hike that, while not the shortest of the Quad, is the most easy-going with only around 500 feet of elevation gain overall. It traverses Easy Grade, Rock Spring, Nora, and Matt Davis Trails. Woodlands, chapparal, history, hummingbirds, and, weather permitting, fine Bay & City views feature in this hike. The meeting point is Bootjack parking lot, by the restrooms.
Additional information: Dress in layers for variable weather and wear appropriate footwear for hiking. Carry drinking water and any snacks you might want. Ticks and poison oak may be present along trails. Dogs other than service animals are not permitted on this hike.
