1954 Map of Tomales

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The dramatic geography of the San Andreas Rift Zone defines this coastal landscape, where Tomales Bay separates the mainland from the Point Reyes peninsula. Along the eastern shore, the infrastructure of an earlier era is visible in the winding path of the Old Railroad Grade, which skirts the waterline near Hamlet and Marshall. The interior of the peninsula remains dominated by established agricultural operations such as Lower Pierce Ranch, Upper Pierce Ranch, and Kehoe Ranch, illustrating the long-standing dairy and ranching tradition of Marin County.
