Tower of Pain
About Tower of Pain:
This 75-foot sandstone spire is a prominent landmark on the ridgeline as you drive west up US 9 from the Silicon Valley to Saratoga Gap. Access is in a gray zone: the spire itself is in Sanborn Skyline County Park, but walking to it could involve trespass on private property. Be careful! |
