Descent

Sonoma Mountain – a seven mile hike with over 1500 ft of elevation gain. It doesn’t quite reach the top which is outside of the park boundary, but it’s nonetheless a great hike.

The Wolf House – one of the more interesting sites – is the ruins of a 15,000 sqft mansion that Jack London began building in 1910. Before the Londons were able to move in, the house burnt down.
