Lone Mountain, San Francisco

Lone Mountain ^[1] is a historic hill in San Francisco, California, United States. It is immediately surrounded by the University of San Francisco (USF) campus, to the south of the Laurel Heights neighborhood. Lone Mountain is one of California's historic hills. The hill is near to the former location of the Odd Fellows Cemetery, Masonic Cemetery, and Greek Orthodox Cemetery. The graves in these cemeteries, along with most graves in San Francisco, were moved to Colma by the 1940s. Lone Mountain is also home to the Angelo J. Rossi Playground and Rossi Pool at Arguello Boulevard and Anza Street.

Lone Mountain is also known as "University Terrace" because of the terraces that connect the two USF campuses.
