Just over the Golden Gate Bridge are the bucolic hills and rolling surf of West Marin. For this week's Scenes of the Citywe explored the Marin countryside, from the hidden Nicasio Valley to the seaside escape of Bolinas, plus the serpentine and beautiful Lagunitas Creek.

Enjoy the photos, and tell us what your favorite spot in West Marin is in the comments. And if you want to dig a little further into the area, check out our slideshow on the Pt. Reyes National Seashore.
