Join MBOSC in exploring the natural history of trails on Wednesday, April 29 from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m.! Santa Cruz County’s many parks and open spaces contain hundreds of miles of trails, and especially during this pandemic, as parks open and close, we’ve all become acutely aware of their importance to our own well-being.

Join three local experts for a panel presentation that will provide a broader context for trail users and volunteers to understand the open spaces where we work and play. Learn more about the rocks, soils, topography, plants, animals, and other aspects of the ecosystem that land managers must consider in addition to human uses, and become a more informed trail user and steward.
