Jane Huber

A native of rural New Jersey, Jane Huber lived in Boston and New York City before moving to San Francisco in 1991. Once she got over the shock of driving a stick shift pickup truck up and down San Francisco's steep streets, Huber began venturing out of the city to explore Bay Area parks and preserves. Seeking to share her hiking experiences with others, Huber created the Bay Area Hiker (www.bahiker.com) website in 1999. She lives with her husband and son in a San Francisco neighborhood populated with hawks and hummingbirds.
