BIG C AT SUNSET IS SO PRETTY.

Everyone at Berkeley needs to hike up to this place a little bit before sunset on a clear day. I've come up to the Big C during the day and during the night, but those views are whatever to me...

Hint: Park at the Foothill parking lot and walk up. Wear hood hiking shoes as the path is not paved and the dirt can get...
