Lone Mountain, Summit in San Francisco, California, US

Lone Mountain is a 128-metre hill in west-central San Francisco, forming the northern half of the University of San Francisco campus. Its slopes were once the Lone Mountain Cemetery, opened in 1854 and later renamed Laurel Hill Cemetery; the graves were moved to Colma. The Spanish called it El Divisadero, a point from which one can look far.

Lone Mountain was the site of Lone Mountain Cemetery, opened on May 30, 1854, and renamed Laurel Hill Cemetery in 1867. After decades of litigation and public debate, the remains were moved, mainly to Cypress Lawn Memorial Park in Colma. Lone Mountain College, founded in 1898, became part of the University of San Francisco in 1978.

The hill's Spanish name, El Divisadero, means a point from which one can look far, and the surrounding neighborhood is also called University Terrace for the terraces linking the two USF campuses. The Angelo J. Rossi Playground and Rossi Pool at Arguello Boulevard and Anza Street serve the surrounding residential and commercial area.

Lone Mountain is not a public summit with marked trails: its top lies within the northern half of the University of San Francisco campus, reached by the terraces linking the two USF campuses. The Angelo J. Rossi Playground and Rossi Pool sit at Arguello Boulevard and Anza Street in the surrounding neighborhood.

The hill's Spanish name, El Divisadero, means a point from which one can look far. The 128-metre summit is now the northern half of the University of San Francisco campus, and the terraces linking the two USF campuses give the area its other name, University Terrace.
