Looking towards Pedro Point Headlands. The grade line for a train that went around the headlands is still visible. The route was quickly abandoned because the land is too unstable to be maintained.

Pedro Point.
Cave reminds me of Montro's belly. The waves are very mild, so it is easy to climb down into the cave and wade to the far entrance.
San Pedro Rock in the background, which can be hiked to at extreme low tide via a chain of 3 small islands. The Pilarcitos Fault has pushed the thick sedimentary layers nearly vertical and sheared them off on the north side
Shelter Cove at the southern edge of Pacifica, with 17 rustic rental cottages that can only be reached via a foot path. The only public access to walk around the point at very low tide from Pedro Point or Linda Mar.
The highest point of the trail is marked by this post.
Pacifica Beach is beautiful from the Pedro Point Highlands.
