more Webb Creek at Steep Ravine

We're getting our first rains now, so a lot of water is soaking into the soil, but later, after another big storm or two, our creeks will be exceedingly full and spectacular.

This water doesn't know it yet, but it's about one mile from spilling out onto the coastline about two miles south of Stinson Beach.

Getting there:
As the map explains, there's two ways to approach Steep Ravine and Webb Creek.
Getting there is a breeze.
It depends on whether you want to explore the whole trail (including a steep section) all the way up from Highway One ((( point A on the map ))), or from a point where Panoramic Highway comes close to Steep Ravine, leaving only a short connector trail ((( which is also part of Dipsea Trail))) to ramble down to the "upper part" of this area.
This "upper part" is where the spectacular redwoods are -- it's really quite a sight -- I think it's probably the prettiest place on Mount Tamalpais. Just a little bit out of the way, but well worth the effort, especially after a rainstorm.
