Looking east toward Monument Peak in Milpitas, California. The rightmost (tallest) antenna is Monument Peak, while the leftmost one (second highest, with three "forks" visible) is Mount Allison. The small antenna in the center was recently built. The gully to the far right of the mountainside is Calera Creek. Just to its left is Scott Creek. Most of the area can be accessed via hking trails in Ed R. Levin County Park.

Going right - south. Going left is north. Mount Allison is about a mile north of Monument Peak.

The actual point of Monument Peak is the point lying directly right (south) of the tallest antenna (FCC structure 1019291).

Notice Mount Allison's antenna - it has three "forks" on the top.

Can you see a few hiking trails leading up to Monument Peak?

The houses at the bottom of the mountains are the upper-class Calaveras Ridge Estates on Calaveras Ridge Road.

The hills are golden because of the dry summer season which dehydrates the grass on the hillsides. The hills are considered a high-risk fire hazard region.
