[T]his is the second Sunday visit in a row where I’ve encountered a group of off-brand bros, their lady friends, their dogs, and their beers. [link]
The migration has started! Glen Canyon Park is also cool because it has miles of hiking trails, occasional Jonathan Richman sightings, and coyotes running wild.

“off brand” eh?
Well the coyotes should take care of the annoying little dog problem.
Glen Canyon is a true treasure. (No dogs allowed on the ball fields/near the playground/in the kid’s part of the park, but my doggy loves him some hiking…) Nothing will beat DP’s weather, though, so I don’t expect a take-over anytime soon. Putting Glen Park on the map could be interesting, though…
Love this Park. Don’t tell Blue Bottle though!!!
I’ve been hearing that Mosswood Park in Oakland in the new Dolores Park. Any opinions on that one?
I live in Diamond Heights and love hiking down through Glen Canyon to Tyger’s on the weekends for my breakfast.
I usually wimp out and take the #52 back up the hill though.
NextBus is such an enabler.
after 15 years in san francisco, i recently went for a hike in glen canyon for the first time. very cool hiking trails, especially when you think that you’re smack dab in the center of the city. a nice little piece of wilderness that you can ride your bike or take a bus to, if you’re craving a little communing with nature. but, the park doesn’t really compare to dolores, well, at least the view doesn’t.
Beautiful park but foggy and cool a lot of the times. better for hiking than lying in the grass.
