Mount Tamalpais & Seminary


. . . with the San Francisco Theological Seminary in the foreground.

Another photo of the same subject was posted in October.

You would think that such a spectacular view would have its own designated pullout.

You would think that there might be a little interpretive sign.

But you would be wrong.

This viewpoint—and there is only this viewpoint—exists high above the insanely busy "Hub" in San Anselmo. It’s found next to a chainlink fence after a hike past low-rent apartments up a crumbling asphalt road. And then it’s a bit of a struggle to avoid the telephone wires.

CA mountains are more impressive than NC mountains :)

But the BBQ is nowhere as good here . . .

yeah, that's probably true. NC's got kickass BBQ.

(i'm not an NC native, so i can say that without being arrogant)

. . . and I could be wrong, but I think we're talkin' pulled pork here.

cleek said...

yup. pulled pork in a vinegar and red pepper sauce (eastern NC style).

you gotta go elsewhere for beef BBQ.
