Mount Davidson Vista Point

At 938 feet, the summit is marked by a 103-foot concrete cross, yet the hill's landscape is visibly divided. Seen from above, there is a clear division between eucalyptus forest on the west and coastal scrub and grassland on the east. Trails wind across the western slopes, where dense, overgrown vegetation and heavy fog drip evoke the feeling of being in a rain forest, providing habitat for migratory and resident birds, including 18 locally sensitive species.
