This is the remains of the former Nike missile San Francisco protection zone site 88 Integrated Fire Control (IFC) facility, located atop Wolf Ridge. In Nike vernacular, this is "SF-88C." It's where the target search/acquisition/tracking and missile tracking/control RADARs were. The actual control equipment & personnel were located in little white vans that were mounted on precisely leveled concrete pads because the system was designed to be transportable, yet obviously there were a lot of support structures using permanent construction materials & techniques. SF-88C remained in operation until the Army shut down SF-88 around 1974. As with SF-88L, the Army left SF-88C mostly intact so that they could be turned into a museum, but the remote location atop Wolf Ridge & the access road washing out meant that only SF-88L -- the launch batter area about a mile away from SF-88C, would be a museum. In the 1970s & 1980s, NPS used SF-88C for a radio repeater location & as a weekend youth-camp site.
