Read MoreThe Hiker’s Trail Map is Back! With Help From a Group of Dedicated Volunteers, Mill Valley History Society Installed a New & Improved Painted Mt. Tamalpais Hikers Trail Map
The Mill Valley Historical Society installed a new and improved map in the same location as its predecessor on November 15, along with updated historic signage telling its story. The old trail map, painted on redwood siding in 1946, had been protected for approximately 50 years hidden away under siding in its previous location at Clark’s Grocery. When the store was demolished for new development, MVHS procured the map and in 2018, after obtaining agreements from Mill Valley stakeholders, a restored trail map was installed on the wall of 34 Miller. It did not hold up well to weather in its new location, however, and a team of volunteers determined in summer 2024 that it wasn’t feasible to save the original map and replicating the original with new protection was our best choice.
