 Down the western side of Lombard, towards Van Ness
 Another shot down West Lombard This is actually really steep, I took it with the camera parallel to the pavement. The tilt of the building at top left gives it away. Walking down this street it feels like it's at least 40 degrees. Cars have to park at 90 degrees. Signage is blunt about that.
 Lombard and Larkin, people stand on roof top to watch Blue Angels

Route Map
 Route Map
The green line is my earlier trip. The red line is the trip with these photos. Although the red trip looks longer, some of it was spent using MUNI (San Francisco Municipal Railroad, in this case, trolley buses). I think it works out overall to less walking distance, but those hills are brutal, esp. up Lombard and Powell.

Plans for Next Time
On my next trip, I may stay on the 42 all the way around to Fisherman's Wharf, and get some shots of the Golden Gate bridge.
