Experience the Resurrection of Mount Umunhum
Mount Umunhum, the third largest peak in the Bay Area, has long been
sacred to the Amah Mutsun tribe. Its peak is central to their origin
story. And for many years, the tribe would form a ceremonial circle
there and stomp their feet as hard as they could so that creator would
hear. In the 1950s, the US Air Force purchased the top of the mountain,
terraced it, and built an early warning radar station that included some
80 structures, such as a swimming pool and bowling alley. From the late
1950s up until 1980, when the base closed, the station was off-limits to
the tribe and all other visitors. Then in 1986, the Midpeninsula
Regional Open Space District (Midpen) purchased the land with the goal
of restoring the landscape as a spiritual home for the Amah Mutsun.
