Rocky Ridge – Danville

Rocky Ridge – Danville

There is so much to explore, enjoy and appreciate up on top of Rocky Ridge. Home of the best sunsets on earth.


It’s maybe a mile and a 900 foot climb out of the parking lot. Great exercise.


We think this is a Native American prayer seat (Tseksel)


Others think it is some rancher’s hunting blind.


This unique pestle and mortar are still hiding up there.


These rocks are part of what we call Louise’s Sculpture Garden.
We discovered this and several other sites from a little pamphlet put out by Louise Lacey many years ago.

Power Places of California. She was a guiding spirit.



Wild flower extravaganza this year. Fiddlenecks galore. Photo by Richard deGraffenreid.


Spend a few days up there just wandering around. All weather spectacular.
