A grant from the State Coastal Conservancy supported Coastwalk's efforts as a part of the Working Group. A Conservancy grant, as well, now supports some of Coastwalk's largely volunteer-driven projects, including continuing development of this website and the project to map the entire CCT. Coastwalk also wishes to thank the other members of the Working Group for their help and encouragement in carrying out the project.

**We mourn the loss of Chuck Mead. He was a good friend and instrumental in
getting the Los Angeles County mapping effort underway. He will be missed
by us all--the effort he gave will continue to be greatly appreciated.**

Special Thanks to:

We acknowledge the continuing support of Wilderness Press in support of the Coastal Trail Project. Wilderness Press generously provides books from their selection of California hiking and travel books that are used as prizes and rewards for our volunteers.

Tod Abbott provided many of the ideas that led to the development of the web map sections and continues to offer much appreciated help. Rasa Gustaitis editor of Coast & Ocean magazine, provided invaluable suggestions as to these pages' content. We give very special thanks those who wrote articles or provided photographs.

Marker Seven provided the original design and underlying operability for the site. Very special thanks go to Dale Cook and his firm, Infinite Carbon Consulting, who maintain these pages, and gives us the very special-client treatment. The site is hosted by Rackspace.
