Welcome to Pease Press!

Pease Press makes maps for all kinds of books, displays, brochures and websites. Our maps are clear, handsome, and convey both points of interest and a sense of place.
Do you need a map, or 50 maps, or an entire brochure? View samples of our maps and graphic design work and learn how we can help you with your projects.
Pease Press makes great trail maps of San Francisco Bay Area parks. You'll find detailed trail information (not generally available in online maps) and the big picture of the natural landscape and connections between parks and neighborhoods (not in mostguidebooks). Get to know the wealth of protected open space that surrounds the Bay Area. Visit our catalog to learn more.
Pease Press titles include Northeast Marin County, San Mateo Coastside, and Santa Cruz.
We also sell Wilderness Press maps of the Central and Southern Peninsula, and Point Reyes National Seashore, and more.
Also read up on other maps and guidebooks, and links to agency maps.

In Feb. 2010 I started a Cartographer's Notebook blog. I'll cover maps, tools, projects, and favorite San Francisco trails and neighborhoods.
In 2009 I was honored to field-check and co-author the 2nd edition of David Weintraub's Top Trails San Francisco Bay Area guidebook. I'll post some notes and photos (and maps to paste over the three that came out funny).
Sadly, Olmsted & Brothers' great maps of Mt. Tamalpais and the Marin Headlands and the East Bay Hills are out of print; we'll let you know if they return, and muse about alternate maps.
