This geologic map is modified from Wahrhaftig and Murchey, 1987 after "Geology of the Golden Gate Headlands", an article by William Elder in the field trip guidebook: Geology and Natural History of the San Francisco Bay Area, USGS Bulletin 2188 . The map shows only a portion of the Golden Gate Recreation Area, highlighting the location of images presented in this website. |
