Founders, Funders & Friends: A Friday Morning Hike on the Peninsula
Let's go on a hike!
Some of the best conversations in the Bay Area don't happen in a conference room. They happen on a trail, with people who actually tell you the truth about what they're building and funding.
This inaugural Tundra Trails event is a small, unhurried Friday morning hike for founders, funders, and the friends who make this ecosystem worth being part of. No pitching, no name tags, no agenda beyond good company, new friends, and a good view. Come as you are, leave with a few people worth knowing.
What to expect
A 2-3 mile loop with a gentle climb and a view at the top, about an hour at a conversational pace. Easy to moderate, and all paces are genuinely welcome. You will not get dropped.
A small group on purpose, so you actually meet people instead of collecting business cards.
📍 Location: San Carlos area. All Tundra Trails hikes will be on the Peninsula (i.e. San Mateo County - between South San Francisco and Palo Alto). Register to see the exact trail for this hike and parking notes.
🥾 Wear comfortable shoes and layers. Bring water and sunscreen.
🐕 No dogs on this one, it's a nature preserve (park rules)
☔️ If the weather looks like it will force a change, I'll email you.
Spots are limited and this first one is intentionally small. Grab your spot below.
