Roughly 17 miles North of San Francisco, in Mill Valley, California, sits a beautiful mountain known as Mt. Tamalpais, or just "Mt. Tam" by the locals. 

Overlooking Marin County and much of the rest of the Bay Area, Mt. Tam is a constant reminder that, no matter how important we may feel, we're just little specks of light in the big picture. That depressing stuff being said, the mountain is also a reminder that our world is so incredibly beautiful, and you don't have to go far to find its beauty. Mt. Tam is a great place to watch the sunset from above the common summertime fog rolling in off the Pacific Ocean.
