Mt Diablo State Park

Black and White pictures by QT Luong

Mount Diablo, one of the most important California State Parks, is an isolated 1173 meter (3849 feet) peak from which it is possible to view the second greatest surface area seen from any peak in the world (exceeded only by Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa). Being its highest point, it is one of the rare places in the Bay Area to receive some snow. The vegetation of mixed oaks, grasslands, and chaparral is typical of the interior hills of the Bay Area.
