Sierra Club hike at Teague Hill Open Space Preserve. There are NO official trails in this preserve, although there are plenty of trails. From the hike description: "Teague Hill includes primitive trails, an absence of trail names or signs, but beautiful and mostly untouched forest and flora. We will do 6-8 miles, with 1800-2300 feet of cumulative elevation gain. This is NOT an easy hike."
