Cazadero Back Roads: Definition
& Mapping

Cazadero, the "Village" situated in
Northwest Sonoma County, is a small town built on the hillsides along either side of
Austin Creek, including Cazadero Highway and Austin Creek Road and their side streets and
surrounds. However "Cazadero" is perceived to encompass a much broader
area, in general, it lies in the coastal hills and high ridges above the village.
Cazadero Back Roads are outlined, roughly, by
the following; Heading north from Hwy. 116 on Cazadero Hwy. to Cazadero (as described
above), up into the hills and high ridges along Forty Ross and King Ridge Roads
(geographically the high ridges are known as the "Mendocino Highlands")
Both Sea
View Road and King Ridge Road lead eventually to Tin Barn Road which heads northerly to
Stewarts Point Road. Stewarts Point/Skaggs Spring Road traverses a short easterly
run to Annapolis Road which takes you west, eventually to the coast at Sea Ranch.
Some notable roadways not mentioned along and within this perimeter are Houser Bridge
Bohan Dillon, Plantation, and Neistrath. All the lands along and between these roads
comprise what is referred to here as "Cazadero Back Roads North".
