Mill Valley rests in the shadow of Mount Tamalpais, the tallest
peak of the Coast Range. Ancient redwood groves cloaking the
mountain's flanks and nearby canyons attracted a pioneer sawmill
that gave the town its name. As the timber industry was replaced by
dairies, Mill Valley became a destination for those drawn to
beauty: hikers, campers, naturalists, artists, writers, and
dreamers who gave the town its early bohemian atmosphere. Tamalpais
Scenic Railway once ran the "crookedest railroad in the world" to
the summit, where passengers exulted in the taste of salty ocean
winds, rolling fog, and stunning vistas of the inner bay and ocean
shores. Pres. Theodore Roosevelt reserved some of the area's
majestic trees, now national parkland webbed with 200 miles of
scenic trails, and named them Muir Woods for naturalist John Muir.
