This image was taken in the Mount Tamalpais region, just off of Ridgecrest Blvd, looking southwest onto Bolinas coastline.
Coming from the south, driving along Ridgecrest Blvd. Right as you pass the "Parking for Twelve Cars" point, continue and you'll see the sweeping views of the road and ocean from the rocks.
Keep driving and park alongside the road with the turnouts and then walk up the hill and towards the ocean. Reference the GPS coordinates to get to the exact place where I launched my drone.
