The tallest peak in the South bay - about 1.5-2 hours of pretty demanding climb. beautiful in the spring time with green pastures and cows. When you get to the peak on a clear day you will get a magnificant view of the bay. Don't forget to get a Pic standing on top of the metal pole at the top ! You can go down from the other side of the hill, but it can be a bit slippery in some seasons.
