The cape is covered with chaparral and lies between San Pablo Bay to the west and north, and Castro Cove to the east. The Chevron Richmond Refinery and Potrero Ridge lay just east of the point. Winehaven lies on its western slopes, and was once the largest winery in the United States. The area is currently isolated from the urban core and serves as habitat for deer and other creatures. The southern end of the ridge developed with many houses in the historic Point Richmond neighborhood. Part of the western coast is part of Point Molate Regional Park.

Notes


gollark: You could try calculating digits of tau, the cool and underappreciated circle constant.
gollark: Maybe try computing comparatively small things, like the... millionth Fibonacci number? Or try and find a different way to do this. Maths seems to have lots of those.
gollark: That's probably quite a big number, then.
gollark: I... see.
gollark: Maybe you could try and store the numbers on disk somehow. Or reevaluate whatever you're doing which somehow involves multiplying numbers that big.
