More
This lone mountain preserves the last large remnant of the Franciscan ecosystem that once covered San Francisco — home to the endangered Mission blue butterfly, protected here in the landmark first Habitat Conservation Plan in the nation (1983). The Summit Loop on a fog-free day is a secret ridge walk over the whole peninsula.
