17 - Whiskey Hill
Whiskey Hill is another area few people know about that's worth
checking out. The hill is about a quarter-mile long, and the main path
goes east-west along the ridge that spans the entire length of the
hill. It's a pretty walk and easy to get to if you happen to be in
that part of the park.
The east end of this path begins where MLK Jr. Drive
intersects Kezar Drive. The path heads west from the intersection,
going up the hill between the two roads. Take the path uphill about 75
yards and then veer left on a smaller path. Take this second path
about another 75 yards. On the right side you'll see a flat dirt spot
under a small tree.
This spot is shady and pleasant, and this side trail
is small enough that you shouldn't have many people accompanying you.
However, there's a bit of road noise here, so it's not quite as
peaceful as some of the other places described in this book.
