Description
The WPA opened up a scenic tourist and health resort area to northeastern Sonoma County by widening and realigning 24 miles of the narrow Geysers road leading east from Cloverdale. This also helped grazing and mining interests in the area.
Total was $104,809 and the WPA contributed %56 of the cost.
