Immediately north anr south of Ban Franeiscay valleys that have riven rise to iWTm of the molt picturesque ceneryes the bay ration If you will lay a ruler on a large map ofeOsJifornia in such a manner that the edge on the end toward the aouth follows the line of the canyon In whichlle the Crystal Springs and San Anftreas lakes In San Mateo county dvou will And tthat the edge en the end toward the north Ilea alone the llaei Bollnas and Tomales bays In MaTncunty The canyon In the ends of which He the Bollnas and Tomalea bays i merely a continuation of the canyon of the Crystal sprints and Ban An drees lakes In spite of the fact that they ate separated by the Golden Oat and apparently Intruded upon by va rloua masses of hills on the San Fran clseo peninsula But thte Intrusion is more apparent than real av TWO VALLEYS ARE ONE ssPtlll hold Ins the ruler on the map you will observe that the hills on the eastern Side of Bollnas bay and the Marin ejiore line to the south though somewhat eaten away by the waves are continued on the other side of the Golden Gate in the elevation of Lincoln Park In San Francisco and right on down through the eastern ridge of the Bah Mateo county lake valley Similarly the western ridges are In line The long narrow valley stretching across Marin and San Mateo counties Just touching San Francisco on its western edge finds Its origin In a long straight fault or break In the earths crust of a kind that is common everywhere but does not often Show In so long and narrow a valley Along this fault where the rocks were weakened by the break stream waters have worn out the valley The nly difference between the Crystal Springs San Andreas section of thl fault valley and the Bollnas Tomales section Is that the former has been raised by movements of the earths trust while the latter has been lowered Therefore while In San Mateo county the vaney is nign aoove the sec In Marin county It has sunk until ij lowest portions are below the surface of the ocean l0MVA3 IS SHlClTEllED Such Is the origin of Bollnas and Tomales bays They are what the geologist knows at drowned valleys valleys that have sunk lower and lower until the sea has crept up Into them Bollnas bay being at the southerly end of lts valley looks to the south and therefore Is protected from the tiff eelit winds that blow from the north rM this part of the coast And leeausa warm current of water sets in tiaiVit tias developed a long sand bar that almost closes the mouth of the bay and stretches southward Bvnr the shore to form the smooth aehis st Stlnson Beach On the nniin and its

In front of It and Mt Tamalpals with its chain of foothills behind It he made it a hard place to get to But when Henry Ford and some more ot the boys made their gas vehicles they made It not only easy but Intensely interesting to get to Stinson Beach or to what many people know as Willow Camp for It Is outt a little camping ground that the town of stinson Beach has grown Probably no other place In

seven miles north of the Golden Gate all these years with a million people within thirty miles of It wishing there was such a place to go to and only a handful of them knowing of It or able to stand the hike ot seven miles over the trail from Mill Valley LOGICAL WEEK END SPOT In ISIS the highway fromSausallto via Mansanlta was made passable for automobiles a stags line was Inaugurated a postofflce with parcel post service Instituted and since that time the territory has prospered and is today becoming the most popular outing place In this part of California The man who owns a car whether he lives In Ban Francisco Oakland Berkeley Fetaluma Santa Rosa or even as far as Sacramento finds that Stinson Beach Is the logical place to go tor a week end excursion or to send his family
