Because of San Diego's varied topography, there are many places to view the city below you. Here are just some of those places:

Hope you enjoyed the pics!

i enjoyed, san diego is beautiful

Please stop posting these pics. I might end up packing my bags and leaving a good job here if you keep it up.

Im very happy to see these...Im so lucky to live here.

Amazing! You guys have natural beauty, beaches & great weather. Lucky SDers.

Nice shots!

I wanna go to SD... have an aunt and friends there...

Can you see Coronado from those hills?

Thanks for the comments, all.

El Tico -

You're pretty lucky to have family that lives in Coronado. Here are some pics for you...

Anti-Cheesehead, your response cracked me up :)

Very nice shots. I've been to all of those vantage points except for Mt. Helix. I would like to try to get up to Mount San Miguel but I've heard it is a pretty tough hike.

I really like seeing those green hills, alas the green is pretty much gone now.

I love how the view south from Mount Soledad is high enough so you can see over the top of Point Loma. I just think it is so cool to look down the "barrel" of the peninsula and see the Coronado Islands behind it!

Thanx SD Urban,

I have friends in Coronado actually, but the truth is that I have no idea where my aunt lives, all I know is that it's in SD...

LOVE the pictures by the way...thanx again...

Great Shots!!! God, there is SO much more than Central Indiana.

I loved San Diego when I visted. Terrific climate, great views, and a very lively atmosphere.

De Nada, El Tico

Enough Enough Enough..... I will call uhaul to take all stuff to San Diego if you do again.

Ahhhhhhh my beautiful home...... I wouln't live anywhere else in the world..

Great photos sdurban.....
