That is not a "thingie," it is Crystal Springs Resevoir. My father has worked on the feasibility of using it as an emergency water supply for SF.
But more importantly, Crystal Springs sits directly on top of the San Andreas Fault. So that "little valley" is actually the intersection of the North American Plate and the Pacific Plate. Amazing that something so peaceful looking, could have so much dangerous potential.
