My first association of Mt Tam is from Cowgirl Creamery's best seller, Mt Tam Triple Cream with Heart cheese.
Ever since then, I've wanted to hike this peak, today I have achieved my wish.
Early June with mild coastal temp, 50s-60s.  Started up Matt Davis Trail in the foggy forest, to Pantoll Campground, to West Point Inn where we can look down to the top of the fog layer, to the Fire Lookout building at the Peak.
Then we came down reverse but split off to Dip Sea trail after the campground. I've also always wanted to climb that ladder.  This hike provided views of the Pacific ocean on the West as well as views of Richmond-San Rafael Bridge on the East side.
I thoroughly enjoyed the cool lush forest, but actually my favorite section was the single track along the slope of the open area after the Mt Tam State Park sign.
