A 360 degree rooftop view on a beautiful spring day in the Evergreen neighborhood of San Jose, CA, located in the foothills of the East Hills / Diablo Range. With the spring rains, the hills are briefly green before the summer turns them golden. In the distance, you can see across the South Bay to the Santa Cruz Mountains and just make out downtown San Jose through the haze. Quimby Road, the major street visible in the panorama, separates the older houses built in the 70's from the new construction in the 2000's, including Evergreen Valley High School, which all sits on land that was formerly vineyards (Mirassou Winery). |

Grove of Titans redwood grove seen from the Northwest gateway to the grove. This pano shows how thick vegetation is in this park. Can you find the trunk of Screaming Titans redwood? Nearly 30' wide at the base. This grove is one written about in The Wild Trees. It rained heavily on this day. More info about the trees see:
