The strange, secret tunnels under UC Berkeley - SFGATE

Forget the catacombs of Paris or the abandoned tube stations of London, the walkways, lawns and historic halls of the UC Berkeley campus have their own shadowy secrets below: a series of interconnected tunnels and walkways with a strange history. As a founding school of the Association of American Universities, UC Berkeley’s campus was established in 1868. The grounds’ iconic buildings, from the towering Campanile clock tower to the Doe Memorial Library, are familiar to millions, but the murky t…

On a breezy summer’s day in 1965, a pale green 40-foot yacht washed up on the Guatemalan coast. Aboard, three distraught young Mexican women who had no idea how to sail, and the decomposing body of an American movie star. He played gangsters, womanizers, carnies and psychopaths.

Rare, 'most coveted' Palisades Tahoe ski lift to open soon - SFGATE

A rare and coveted ski run at Tahoe Palisades is opening to the public, but should only be attempted by advanced skiers, the resort says. The Silverado lift hasn’t spun yet this season, but thanks to the recent massive snowfall and an impressive effort by the crew on the mountain, it’s set to open again in the coming days. “Last week we received eight feet of new snow in four days, so this was the storm that is making it possible to open,” Palisades spokesperson Patrick Lacey told SFGATE over e…

Why no one wants to live in this $2.4M California mansion - SFGATE

It was a beautiful day to visit a murder mansion. LA’s crisp winter sun was high in the sky as I ambled up the steep curve of Glendower Place for the first time, having read so many tales of the home on the hill.
