$8.99$34.99

Contra Costa County is located in the East Bay of the San Francisco Bay Area, and was one of the original 27 counties established in California in 1850. It is the ninth most populous county in the state, and is made up of 19 cities and many established communities in the unincorporated area. The county seat is Martinez.  The county’s name means “opposite coast” because of its location opposite San Francisco, in an easterly direction, on San Francisco Bay.

In the county are several different natural environments, including grassland, oak woodland, redwood forest, chaparral, riparian gullies, streams, and wetlands. These areas provide excellent habitat for many different species of mammal – including the endangered Tule Elk.
