Here, golden needle flowers climb the steep ridges of Golden Needle Mountain. The viewing climate is cool and pleasant, sometimes under bright blue skies, sometimes amid misty clouds. As the sun rises from the beautiful Pacific coastline, bringing the first rays of dawn, and as the sundial slowly moves down the mountain, you can gaze out over the ocean and sky meeting in the distance, accompanied by swaying golden blooms. This breathtaking and uplifting view washes away all worries and troubles.
