Buena Vista Park

11comments

Lots of trails and paths -- if going at night best to scout it out during the day. Lots of trees, and hidden spots. evenings everyone just tucks themselves in a hollow and stands jacking waiting for the right one.

Best time
6:30 am-11 pm.
Crowd
While all types and ages do go there, I would say mostly it's guys in…
Watch out
The park is safe.

The guide

Where exactly

cruiser adds: The park can be reached by the 37 Corbett bus, taken

Cruisiest spot: The best spot is the top of the hill looking out towards the city

When to go

6:30 am-11 pm. There is good cruising all night. Best times: Early am dog walkers, lunchtime and early afternoon/evening. Dates open: 6:30 am-11 pm???

Etiquette

cruiser adds: It's not really true that "everyone" jacks waiting for the right one. In fact, very few people stand (or sit) jacking. People generally cruise around, though some stand waiting. Virtual requirements: 1) Strong legs; it is steep (and that's also why most guys there are in fairly OK shape). 2) Bring water. There is no drinking fountain. 3) Wear a warm jacket. It is almost always chilly and until about 11:00 p.m. it's breezy.

Nudity: Yes / some

Safety

The park is safe. Police almost never come up but if they do, you just walk downhill away from their car lights. Because of its location and steepness, few problem people hang out there though once in a while a homeless person camps out, but they are harmless.

The south east slope, which is the cruisy area, is now fenced off for a landscaping and erosion control project. It is expected to last through the rest of 2009, and I suspect will not be quite the same.
