Paradise Dr., Mateo Dr. - Feb. 10, 2010

Walking Distance: 1.8 miles
Walking Time: 55 minutes (4:30 - 5:25 p.m.)
Start and End Point(s): shoulder parking, along Paradise Drive, Tiburon, CA

While walking this stretch of
Paradise Drive (shown as unimproved trail
section -- double, parallel yellow lines on map),
I took a small break to walk up Mateo Drive
(a short cul-de-sac up on the hill, off Paradise
Drive - not shown on this map). There was a
nice view of the Bay from the top of Mateo.


Tiburon is a great place to see deer. I saw three of them carefully walking across the street from where I was this evening; they were "hiding" in some bushes. I told them not to worry, and asked to take their picture, and they seemed to comply (and they may have thought I was a little nuts).

Once again, be careful while walking along Paradise Drive. I was walking this stretch as it was starting to get dark and commuters were rushing to get home. In spots it is necessary to walk very close to said cars.

Wildlife Sightings:
2 little brown jobs (LBJs)
3 deer
