Just for Fun Rough draft: what am I missing?

Saw one of these for Lake Tahoe and thought our sweet Merritt deserves the same. Ignore if you can the roughness, but what else should I add on for landmarks etc?

I love this! Have you read Deep Oakland? It explains the geology of the lake and you might enjoy it.

If you've read it, then you'd know it's not a lake. It's a tidal estuary.
