 TDCL went on a hiking trip to Mount Umunhum on Saturday, June 13, 2026. - Event Album "In the mid-20th century, Mount Umunhum was acquired by the United States Air Force and was used as a radar station during the Cold War. The summit was crowned with a large white radar tower, which became a landmark visible from miles away. However, the station was decommissioned in 1980, and the tower was dismantled in 2017. In 1986, the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District acquired the land from the Air Force and began efforts to restore the mountain’s natural habitat.
