1954 Map of San Rafael

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Muir Woods National Monument and the surrounding peaks of the Mount Tamalpais State Park dominate the southwestern portion of this mid-century survey, illustrating the preserved redwood groves and steep canyons that buffer the growing suburban communities of Marin County. The landscape transitions from the high ridges of East Peak and Middle Peak down into the dense residential and educational hubs of San Rafael, San Anselmo, and Ross. Local history is anchored by landmarks like the Mission San Rafael Arcangel and the San Francisco Theological Seminary, alongside the tracks of the Northwestern Pacific RR which connect these valley towns.
