At the left we see the north summit of Mission Peak (2512ft). Mt. Tamalpais (2571ft) is to the right at the end of San Francisco Bay. The large boulevard that points to Mt. Tamalpais is Mission Blvd. in Fremont. Moving to the right we see Vollmer Peak (1910ft) in the Berkeley Hills. Mt. Saint Helena (4343ft) can just be seen in the distance. Moving right we see Mt. Diablo (3849ft) standing alone. Below that, closer, we see the Sunol Valley and the escarpment of the Calaveras Fault. To the right we see San Antonio Reservoir, tucked in the hills south of Pleasanton and Livermore. Moving to the right we see Apperson Ridge ascending to the small bump of Rose Peak (3814ft) at the high point along the ridge. To the right we see Poverty Ridge, and behind that the ridge of Copernicus Peak (4372ft) and Mt. Hamilton (4210ft). To the right we see the summit of nearby Mt. Allison (2658ft), and in the distance Loma Prieta (3791ft) across the sprawl of San Jose.
