Red Hill Gravel Quarry

The Red Hill Gravel Quarry, cut into the south end of the Coyote Hills, sinks almost 300 feet below the salt pond waters. For this image I flew the kite from one of the adjacent hills. I suspect that the motorists stopping at the Dumbarton Bridge toll plaza never realize that they are adjacent to such an enormous pit.

 

This is a stitched panorama of four landscape format images taken 3 October 2005.
