Mount Diablo

At 3,849 feet Mount Diablo is one of the highest points in the Bay Area and, standing in relative isolation, is historically famous for the panorama it offers. Early surveys of the state used Mount Diablo as a reference point for mapping out California and beyond. For that and other reasons Mount Diablo State Park had been on my radar for some time, and it was nice to finally set foot in it. Driving around sunset was visually pleasant, but I could only take so much elevation gain along the narrow, curvy road. Still, it was worth it.
