NEED TRAVEL ADVICE PLEASE: I will arrive at SFO Saturday at 2pm, and am renting a car. Where can I drive for 2-4 hours, to spend the night among majestic redwoods? Thinking a short hike Saturday night, and then am up for an eight-hour (moderate) hike Sunday. Could even spend the day Monday, and hike some more. Need to drive back to SF/arrive by 10 pm Monday night. Planning to grab a cheap motel room in the outter Sunset Monday & Tuesday night. (Cont)

You could go to Armstrong , there’s not a ton to do but it’s pretty and there’s some other little hiking spots along the River .

You could probably find something fairly inexpensive in Guernville.

Muir Woods is nice too, could maybe find something in Point Reyes . Again, pretty but could be done in a day.

Tahoe might still be nice but might be way more built up since I was there ages ago. Probably pricier depending what side of the lake you want .

I think Carmel has pretty hiking but I’ve only really done the beach there . If you do go carmel Salinas area is probably the cheapest for staying, on your way to or from you can hit Santa Cruz for a hike or food.

uplifting

Glad you had a nice time , I’ve yet to go to Yosemite (still on the list) . I imagine it’s a good time to go now weather wise and avoiding the bus loads of tourists during a spring break /summer . You definitely had more to do at Yosemite . Yeah it’s definitely pretty in NorCal l .

Yeah Armstrong and Muir are beautiful (and maybe it’s just because I grew up by them) but really feels like you need to want to do more than just connect with nature if you do those . Antique shopping or poking a seal with a stick on a freezing rocky beach

Would love your suggestions for cheap, simple cabin or hotel accommodations for Saturday night and Sunday night out in the wild. Big Sur? Sequioa National Park? Yosemite? Will really only have two days of hiking time. I need to clear my vibes. Please comment with places to stay half way, too. Also love natural springs! And if you have cheap motel recs in outter sunset, LMK. Thanks, all!

A lot of what is mentioned is too far for the time you have - maybe big sur or muir woods but russian river would also do it. Honestly even Oakland has redwoods. Yeah dont need to go far.

Planning to join OFSS as I will work in product development team and can work in any shift timings with WFH.

Do I need to worry about this and feel low?
Could EY GDS would have been better instead of OFSS?

Please provide your valuable inputs.
