I am thrilled to announce the installation of a replica of the Mill Valley Hikers Trail Map. I orchestrated the process of replacing the original map painted in 1949 by Muir Woods Rangers. The original was painted on the side of a grocery store which is long gone.

With a generous donation from the Mill Valley Historical Society, we were able to hire artist Llewellyn Ludlow to paint the replica. The replica was installed by Matt Matthews of valley lumberyard

The map is located downtown Mill Valley on the alleyway wall of Urban Remedy for the community to enjoy. Follow my instagram for more projects

We will be creating a replica of the historic Mill Valley Hikers Trail Map. The trail map was painted in 1946 by rangers from Muir Woods for a grocery store owner who was giving visitors to Mill Valley directions to Mount Tamalpais State Park hiking trails. The map was painted on the side of the grocery store! Jill Benton had the original map restored and installed in downtown Mill Valley in 2018. The historic map suffered from sun and rain exposure over the last 6 years. Artist Llewellyn Ludlow will paint the replica we have fondly named Trail Map 2.0.
