morning fog in the south bay area

top of Highland Road (which turns into Summit Rd/Highway 35) - one of my favorite areas

Mt. Umunhum, one of the highest peaks in the bay area (about 3,500 ft high). That 'cube' is more than five stories tall, and is an abandoned radar tower from the cold war era. It is actually closed to the public because there are remnants of radioactive waste, but you can get as far as a locked gate a couple hundred meters from the top. Local government is actually in the process of developing a plan to clean up the area and open it up to the public in a few years.

@ 2100m after climbing up from Vilaflor in Tenerife. 24c at Sea Level in December but about 8c where this was taken. The descent soon warms you up though :thumbup:
