2012 Map of Mallo Pass Creek

About this map

The San Andreas Fault runs just offshore of this Mendocino County coastline, where the rugged Pacific edge meets a series of agricultural holdings and residential developments. Coastal landmarks like Gunderson Rock and White Rock define the shoreline near Bridgeport Landing, a point of historical interest for maritime history and local commerce. Further inland, the map shows the transition from shoreline ranching at Galletti Ranch and Christiansen Ranch to the more structured roads of Pomo Lake Dr and Hill Crest Dr. The landscape is deeply incised by numerous waterways including Mallo Pass Cr, Irish Cr, and Mills Cr, which flow from high points like Bald Hill and the prominent Cliff Ridge. These drainages, along with features such as Irish Gulch and Cowshed Gulch, illustrate the complex drainage patterns of this coastal shelf.
