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.
