About this map

Vallejo and Benicia anchor the northern shoreline of the Carquinez Strait in this 2018 survey, which highlights the industrial and maritime character of the East Bay waterfront. The map traces the rugged southern hills through Franklin Canyon and Big Bull Valley, where the Bay Area Ridge Trail and Sky Trail traverse the ridgelines. Significant local heritage is documented through a dense concentration of cemeteries, including the Military Cem and Saint Vincent Cem near Army Point.

Smaller settlements like Port Costa, Crockett, and Oleum are shown along the southern coast, linked by the Carquinez Scenic Dr and major infrastructure like the Benicia-Martinez Bridge. The landscape transitions from the urban density of Martinez and Vallejo to the open terrain of Sulphur Springs Mtn and Sky Valley, offering a comprehensive look at the intersection of heavy industry, transport corridors, and preserved open space.
