Directory and Portal
For a number of years Hwy9.com served as a portal and directory for the five communities within the Santa Cruz Mountains and visitors to the region.

The site featured a database-driven directory of local merchants, weather info, road conditions, a community calendar, links to elected officials, info on schools, libraries, churches, day care and other topics of interest to mountain dwellers and visitors alike. This redesign was developed in partnership with IHwy in Boulder Creek.
