SF-90DC Mt. Tamalpias

N 37.92305°, W 122.60067°, elevation 2366 feet



No launch site, this was just a massive radar installation on the west peak of the mountain. It's still in use by the FAA. The barracks and most of the housing on the west peak were demolished a few years ago. Access: shortly before the road up Mt. Tam gets to the top, there's a big gate on the north side. Here's a link to some historic photos of the site, and some more recent photos.






























A corner of the filled-in swimming pool, complete with diving board and lifeguard chair. The base also had a tennis court and bowling alley.



A broken pool tile.
