East Bay

This map focuses on the East Bay, from the western shoreline of San Francisco Bay, across the island of Alameda, through the flat downtown areas of Berkeley, Oakland, and the surrounding cities of Albany and El Cerrito, up into the steep hills and ravines east of these urban hubs.  The contrasts are gorgeous, and the climbs up to Tilden Park and Redwood Regional Park are obvious, pushed forward with deep, saturated colors.  But the subtle features are just as interesting, where highways wind through urban areas and Lake Merritt sinks into the landscape at the base of the Oakland Hills.
