How to get there

N37° 59' 30.7421"W122° 58' 19.4779"

This photo was taken at Chimney Rock in Point Reyes National Seashore. To get there, take the Chimney Rock Road and drive out to the Chimney Rock Trailhead where you can park your car. From there, it will be a short and fairly flat hike to the GPS coordinates. For this specific shot, I turned right off the main trail after passing Historic Point Reyes Lifeboat Station on my left. This narrow path will take you to the cliff edge where you'll be able to see an elevated view of Chimney Rock.
