Hiking and climbing mountains inspired me into this life philosophy - LIFE IS A MOUNTAIN. Every step you make leads to summit. You may be forced to turn around or change routes for any cause, never know. But, stay focused and look forward. The mountain will be there always. Pace yourself and reach "your" summit, for every step counts. Enjoy the view and feed your soul as it comes along. Life is a journey, not a destination. Life is like climbing a mountain.....

Hiking up Mt. Davidson, Corona Heights and Buena Vista Park - San Francisco, CA
June 17, 2017
Mt.
Davidson (927'), is the tallest mountain peak in San Francisco. It is known as
the mountain with the cross on top. If you are a movie buff, you may recall Mt.
Davidson's cross from the Dirty Harry movie. Hiking through the green forest
with tall trees is such a pleasant experience and you almost forget about the
fact you are in the middle of the city by the bay! Views from the top are
spectacular in all directions.
Corona Heights....I never noticed the existence of this rocky peak in the city
until now. What a shame! Its fantastic....SF downtown vistas seen from Corona
Heights are perhaps the BEST of the best, I'd say. Buena Vista Park is also
nearby....another beautiful park....so, don't miss it. Watch out for coyotes! I
ran into one on the trail.-
Buena Vista Park is located right by Haight Ashbury....San Francisco's iconic
district....and named for the spectacular views from its upper slopes. It's
also the oldest park in San Francisco, with interconnecting trails through the
forest. Blooming flowers are beautiful and the smell of trees and vegetation
mystically permeates in the park.
