Celebrate winter with a beautiful short hike and lots of science at China Camp State Park! Join scientist and educator Sarah Ferner from San Francisco Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve for a walk near the edge of China Camp’s tidal salt marsh during one of the highest high tides of the year – a King Tide. We will learn about the marsh, scientific research occurring there, and what king tides can teach us about sea level rise.  Click here to see a time-lapse video of a King Tide at China Camp.

What to bring: Camera, binoculars

Meeting place: Turtleback Hill Nature Trail. Please enter the park from the East (Peacock Gap/Downtown San Rafael). If N. San Pedro Rd is flooded, the meeting location will be moved east of the flooding. Please do not drive through flooded areas!
