How to get there

N37° 44' 18.2904"W122° 27' 11.6352"
This aerial view is of The Mount Davidson Cross on Mount Davidson — the highest natural point in San Francsico. Arrive at the intersection of Dalewood Way and Myra Way (14 Dalewood Way). Take the trail behind the bus stop, making every left turn along the way. Eventually, you’ll make it to the top of Mount Davidson where you will find a Vista Point and The Cross. If you get lost, follow whichever trail you are on up the mountain and eventually you'll make it to the top. I recommend flying your drone from the Vista Point’s open area. Refer to the GPS coordinate in satellite view for context.
