You posted this at 8:55, didn't you? Here is a list with the Sean M. Hall seal of quality:

Telegraph Hill

Russian Hill

My favorite, Mt Davidson

Bernal Heights

Nob Hill

Golden Gate Heights

Laurel Heights

Presidio Heights

Pacific Heights

Twin Peaks

Petrero Hill

College Hill*

Those are a few.

Hope this helps.

*Only a small portion of College Hill remains. It was cut by the Bernal Cut (see the picture).

Oh yeah. Diamond Heights

Oh yeah

Mt Sutro

Rincon Hill*

*I don't consider it a hill.

Mt Sutro is adjacent to Twin Peaks, Rincon Hill is by the Bay bridge.

The rest is up to you.

Go to Surfwax.com. It's much better than Google.

Bernal Hill's official site is a good resource on that particular hill. I am still searching.

Thank you.

Wait, why am I thanking YOU? Whatever. I guess it IS good to see someone with an interest in SF history. That's why I created TSFFC.

This map shows Telegraph and Russian Hill. Russian is on the right, Telegraph is on the left.

Pacific Heights is by Pacific street and Alta Plaza Park.

Actually, my favorite is Parnassus (spelling?) Heights, where I was born.

No hang on a minute, I think I like Telegraph better. Apparently Telegraph was originally called Sunset Hill. I'll send you a link when I get one.
