It has a lot of small places that I love, and skips a few obvious big ones (Twin Peaks, Alamo Square).

The point where Crosstown Trail and Reverse Crosstrail cross is called Crosstown Crosstrail Crossing.

Test walking the Reverse Crosstrail today. Woke up early for this. Wish me luck!pic.twitter.com/ioHJPDnUb1

I did it! It ended up being the same length as the official Crosstrail, but with a Burj Khalifa’s worth of climbing – although I definitely took a few detours and extra hills.pic.twitter.com/LziviUAMcb

My timing ended up working out well! Here is an opening shot (Telegraph Hill) juxtaposed with a closing moment (Fort Funston).pic.twitter.com/mkkuiA2xoJ

Observations: More old-city vibes, also avoiding popular areas, nicer opener, similarly good closer (amazing that SF has such great four corners).pic.twitter.com/d1ro3vOCuz

(Notes to self: Apple ProRAW is buggy. Also, in the future, maybe don’t do two 18-mile hikes in a week.)pic.twitter.com/kiVDhzBFBG

Replying to @mwichary
Nice job. Did the something similar back in March. Called mine the X-Town Trail (forms an X with the Crosstown).pic.twitter.com/itSrQFlg3j
