Had a picnic on the top of the mountain, and it was amazing! Great views of the ocean, and a lot of grass to walk around or to settle down.

That's about all I can say ... touring this memorial and seeing faces, dates and information on people that served our country truly humbled me. This is truly a must see. Do not miss it, the view is spectacular as well.

Mount Soledad separates La Jolla and Pacific Beach, and from the top of this mountain you have a gorgeous panoramic view of LJ, PB, Mission Bay and some of the canyons in the area. I would recommend to come here towards the end of your stay, because from up here I always found it fun to locate the places that...
