A view looking southwest and near the steep coastal cliff along the 820 foot long row of granite stones along the Tomales Point Trail.
The boulders are aligned to Mount St. Helena in the northeast and run to the cliff edge, pointing to the Farallon Islands in the southwest.
They are named the Spirit Jumping-Off Rocks by the Coast Miwok tribe, who believe when a person dies their spirit walks west.
The rock line is man-made and appears on an 1862 Coast Survey map.
Who placed the stones, for what purpose, and when still remains uncertain.
