Off from town -
On the historical trolley line -
which is both active public transportation -
and a national history icon too! -
Here we are at Castro! -
gateway to the twin peaks -
and land of the rainbow flag! -
look at that mass of overhead wires! -
it's the gay district of the city -
ditto! -
decked out in pride! -
loads of them everywhere! -
the fastest is from castro, head up to 20 street -
look, man love! :3 -
the way up to the twin peaks... -
remember to turn your wheels into the kerb! -
require some neighbourhood navigating -
Up the stairs! -
and more stairs! -
getting higher! -
The juntion between Romain street & Douglass street -
yup, that's the street alrite! -
then you will come to this bridge at the end of the street -
cross it and head straight -
you will hit a school at the end -
The Rooftop Elementary School -
don't take this steps as it leads into the school -
go along Burnett Avenue -
it's a school zone alright! -
the high rise residential areas on the hills -
climb the steps at end of hopkins -
followed by this flight of steps -
through a residential carpark -
it's quite a flight -
alternative to climbing is taking bus 37 up here from castro -
looking good from up here! -
which I will advise for the trip down -
Crestline is the highest street here -
just follow the signs -
Here's the entrance to the summit! -
Sutro Tower in the distance -
The city of San Francisco! -
the sun is setting behind us -
the business district and transamerica pyramid -
the figure of 8 road serving the twin peaks -
heres the south peak -
more steps, this time more grassy! -
The fast setting sun -
Crestline street and the short climb up to the figure of 8 road
