Geocache Description:

If hills could have feelings, this one would probably have a bit of a chip on its shoulder.

Not even the second highest hill in SSF, this little guy is dwarfed by San Bruno Mountain, and flanked by Sign Hill. To make things worse, it's been quarried out, used as a transmission line stepping stone, and, horror of all horrors, dwarfed by a hideous high rise that's named after a Las Vegas casino.

Are you starting to get the picture?

There are a variety of ways to approach the cache, but if you choose to approach from the north, you'll ascend about 100' in the last 300' of horizontal. That shows me this little hill still has some spunk left.

From the top, you'll be treated to interesting views in all directions. The cache is a decon container. The trail is rough and steep, so on the way back down, watch out for loose soil and gravel.
