Mount Oso, Mountain summit in Stanislaus County, California, US.
Mount Oso rises to 3,352 feet in the Diablo Range of Western Stanislaus County, forming part of the Pacific Coast Ranges system.
Spanish explorer Gabriel Moraga encountered Mount Oso during his early nineteenth-century expeditions through California's Central Valley region.
The City of Modesto incorporated Mount Oso into its official municipal logo as the mountain stands prominently in the local landscape.
Access to Mount Oso requires advance coordination as the mountain sits on private property with gates restricting entry to the hiking trails.
The summit contains radio broadcasting equipment and features an abandoned fire observation tower that previously monitored the surrounding territory.
