The Bay Area's Monday hiking group for the job-hunting heads to Reinhardt Redwood Regional Park on June 15 — its first East Bay outing, free parking included.

The Monday hike for Bay Area job-seekers — now organized under the name (un)PTO — takes its weekly outing to the East Bay this week. The destination is Reinhardt Redwood Regional Park in the Oakland Hills, Monday, June 15 at 10:30am, and 44 people have already RSVPed.

The loop is 5.0 miles with 636 feet of gain, rated moderate, mostly shaded through 150-foot coast redwoods with ridge views out to Mount Diablo. Organizers estimate 2–2.5 hours on trail.

The logistics: Main entrance is Redwood Gate at 7867 Redwood Road, Oakland, CA 94619 — take Highway 13, exit Redwood Road, go east (uphill) past Skyline Blvd. Parking is free on weekdays (the $5 cash fee only applies weekends and holidays, April–October). Dogs are welcome on-leash. Download the trail map before you leave — there's no cell service inside the park. RSVP free at partiful.com/e/eS3soVUYIYeRoIoVudFw.

Transit and carpool: This trailhead isn't realistically walkable from BART — the organizers are coordinating carpools through the event page, which is the move if you don't have a car.

If you've been tracking (un)PTO from the Marin and SF editions and have been waiting for the East Bay turn, this is it. The group also has a Discord and Instagram now — links on the Partiful page — so you can follow future locations without scanning r/bayarea every Sunday night.
