Small monument on a low ridge overlooking the East Bay and San Francisco Bay — offers wide panoramic compositions of water, bridges, salt marshes and distant hills. Best at golden hour for warm light and reflections; clear sunsets give dramatic skies. Easy, short walk from roadside parking on Old Hillary Rd; no entry fee. Weekday mornings are quieter; watch for wind and seasonal fog that affect visibility.
