At the far southwestern edge of the Las Vegas Valley, Terrible’s Road House rises like a glitzy monument to the American road trip. It's the largest Chevron gas station in the world.

The site's convenience store alone spans more than 50,000 square feet, with multiple restaurants packed inside its warehouse-like walls.

As Yosemite National Park swells with visitors ahead of a reservation-free summer season, vandalism has started to become a problem along one of the park’s most popular hiking trails.

John DeGrazio, owner of YExplore Yosemite Adventures, has been guiding clients on hikes through the park for 20 years. But what he witnessed while leading a hike up the Mist Trail to Nevada Fall on Monday, he said, was unlike anything he’d ever seen: stickers plastered over previously untouched interpretive signs, locks attached to metal railings and even names and initials etched into rocks and trees.

State scientists and a coalition of regional partners gathered on a peak of Angel Island this week to debut a new way to keep gray whales safe in San Francisco Bay: artificial intelligence.

“We can come together as a community and do something today, which is to ensure that more of the whales that come into the bay make it back out and are not struck and killed by ships,” Douglas McCauley, the director of UC Santa Barbara’s Benioff Ocean Science Laboratory, said during Tuesday’s launch of a new monitoring system on Angel Island.

As San Francisco’s skyline continues to be littered with vague AI billboards and startup slogans, Silicon Valley is racing toward its next frontier: teaching robots human-like dexterity.

Last week, SFGATE’s News Features Reporter Ariana Bindman attended “Dexterity Night,” a San Francisco event hosted by artificial intelligence company RLWRLD.

What she found beneath the branding and demos was an apparent, and equally upsetting, air of casualness around the prospect of human displacement.

The event, she argues, reflected something bigger: Tech leaders and their financial backers are barreling toward a future reshaped by automation with far more excitement than concern for the people left in its wake.

In the early 1980s, Sunol elected a mayor that would shine a global spotlight on the rural hamlet.

His unorthodox qualifications drew scrutiny a decade later when a major overseas outlet painted his appointment as a sign of the failure of the Western democratic process.

Instead of conceding, he doubled down. At one point, the mayor appeared at a rally, where was met with applause and chants of his name when he took the speaker’s platform.

Not bad for a dog.

Trokay, a restaurant in downtown Truckee, has created a culinary style unique to Tahoe.

Fifteen years ago, chefs and co-owners John and Nyna Weatherson arrived in Truckee with résumés shaped in some of the best kitchens and food businesses in the world. They could have gone anywhere. Instead, they chose the mountain town they’d fallen in love with and built a life — and a restaurant — around it.

Every spring, the couple heads into the woods near their home to forage white fir needles at their brightest green peak. At Trokay, they use them to deepen curries and spin them into a vibrant, herbaceous, citrusy sorbet.

A weekslong treasure hunt in San Francisco has ended after a box of $10,001 in cash was discovered Tuesday. But in a final twist, the booty was found outside the city.

The endeavor was dubbed “Buried Treasure, San Francisco,” but the clues never actually claimed the coins were within city limits.

In a rather shocking move, BART is raising the price of parking in certain lots for the second time this year.

Not for everyone, mind you. Just thousands of riders who use five particular stations: Glen Park, Rockridge, San Bruno, West Oakland and Walnut Creek.

SFGATE's Food Editor Jessica Yadegaran was still getting used to the sticker shock of the Jan. 1 increase, which took a reserved space from $6 to $7.80. Now, that same spot will cost $9.

"It’s a busy station, and that’s exactly why they’re doing it — punishing the people who actually use public transportation the most," shewrites.

1960s British singer Engelbert Humperdinck, actor Brian Dennehy, late comedian Bob Saget and original child star Shirley Temple all make appearances.

And tucked high on one wall, there’s even a signed photo from of-the-moment pop princess Sabrina Carpenter.

Buster Posey secured his place in Giants history by anchoring the most successful era the franchise has ever seen.

Now, though, Giants fans are as angry as they’ve been in recent memory, watching an on-field product so bleak it has some longing for the .500 years under Bob Melvin.

And Posey — now the team’s president of baseball operations — is firmly in the crosshairs, despite all the goodwill he built in orange and black.

The famous “potstickers” at Mini Potstickers in the Outer Sunset are not really potstickers at all.

The restaurant’s star dish is actually thumb-sized sheng jian bao: tiny, pan-fried buns filled with juicy pork and finished with sesame seeds and scallions.

The once low-key spot has become harder to keep secret after “Top Chef” alum Melissa King praised it on Instagram.

Beyond the mini sheng jian bao, the menu includes chili pork wontons, tender beef noodle soup, melt-in-your-mouth tofu pudding and the shatteringly crisp jianbing.

Just a little over a month before this year’s California Michelin Guide announcements, the guide has added another crop of eateries to its recommendations.

Seven Bay Area restaurants, from an Oakland Korean banchan shop to a San Francisco soul food restaurant, have been added to the list — a distinction that means they may earn Bib Gourmand or star awards at the ceremony on June 24 in San Diego.
