Nice shaded view from the bridge across the creek that fills the San Pablo reservoir, with the help of additional water piped in from Sierra Nevada reservoirs including Lake Comanche.

Great overlook of the reservoir, along the road as unfortunately the trail around the lake is closed to bikes.

Near the high point of Bear Creek Road a better view of the reservoir opens up than at the overlook a half mile lower along the road.
