From former quiet navy towns to trend-setting cities and forests seeded long before the birth of the modern age, from magnificent redwoods to the sunny beaches of San Diego, coastal California offers an extraordinary experience with something for everyone. Published in July 1993 as half of a two-map set, this beautifully illustrated map of California's ocean side accompanied the article "California's North Face."
The diverse regions waiting to be explored are documented on this map of the Golden State with vivid color that jumps off the page. Illustrations of the rocky coastline, rolling farm fields and iconic architecture is contrasted against informative maps of the Coast Redwoods, San Francisco, Monterey, Los Angeles, and San Diego. These small maps are packed with historical and modern information, such as roads, railways, airports, historic missions, state beaches, wildlife reserves, historic parks, Native American lands and federal parks.
A vibrant and unique conversation piece, this map makes a fine companion to the political map of California published in the same issue of National Geographic.
