Sutro’s future? The receding treeline of Mt Davidson
The trees in this picture are in the Edgewood felling zone. If they are chopped down, hikers in the forest will get a clear rear view of the hospital, the new stem-cell research building, and the power plant.
Edgewood – Most of these trees would be felled.

Below: In Japan, the home of gardening as an elevated art-form, there’s a style called “Borrowed scenery.” The garden is designed to include the vista, typically a mountain. Perhaps that’s what the designers here intended: The wooded Mt Sutro is a lovely backdrop to a Stow Lake vista. (Photo credit: LC.)

I would love to share with you a picture I took today. I don’t see a similar one on your website. I don’t see a place to attach it.
I’ll check out the blog.
Vickie, thanks! We’ve added it here, as well as giving it a separate post.
