Ten of us started from the end of Westward Drive and made a loop up the Phyllis Ellman Tr to the Ring Mt Fire Rd with stops at the Petroglyph Rock and Turtle Rock. Then we headed out to the actual peak and had lunch overlooking the Bay. Return was via the Loop Tr. This is a short walk, only about 2.6 miles, but, Oh, the flowers! Masses of blue eyed grass, tidy tips the size of half dollars, poppies and (a first for me) the Calochortus umbellatus (Oakland Star-tulip). Many tahanks to Phred and Elaine for suggesting this walk!
