Join Ring Mountain Steward Sam Abercrombie for the second interpretive hike through the Ring Mountain burn area. In June of 2012 a wildfire swept through Ring Mountain, burning 14 acres of sensitive habitat that is home to numerous rare and endangered species. Since that time, the burn area has been closed off to the public in an effort to minimize further impact, study the effects of the wildfire, and rehabilitate this fragile habitat. We will walk through the main trail of the burn and take a look at what has started to regenerate after the winter rains. We will also talk about what we have learned about the impacts of the fire, and what efforts we have taken to ensure the area’s recovery. This walk is for adults. We request that no animals (except service animals) attend. Questions: Contact Ring Mountain Stewardship Coordinator Sam Abercrombie at (415) 473-2128 or SAbercrombie@marincounty.org. Meet at the gate at the end of Taylor Rd in Tiburon. DIRECTIONS: From Hwy 101 in Corte Madera, take exit 449A for Tamalpais Dr east. Go straight onto San Clemente, which merges into Paradise Dr after 0.4 mile. Follow Paradise Dr approximately 1.7 miles, turn right onto Taylor Rd, and follow to end (dead end).
