- A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
Tuesday May 16 th, 10 AM to 2:00 PM
Join MMWD and our One Tam partner, the Marin County Parks, for a special outing. This hike begins with a slow climb up the Pine Mountain Fire Road through serpentine chaparral where wildflowers and birds abound. From the ridge we'll descend to the waterfall which is one of the few remaining breeding sites in the county for the rare foothill yellow-legged frog. 6.5 mile round trip, 1100 foot elevation gain. Remember to bring binoculars if you have them.
Meeting location is the Azalea Hill parking lot. From the town of Fairfax, drive up Fairfax-Bolinas Rd. for 3.8 miles (1.3 miles past the entrance to the Meadow Club). The parking area is on the left. This is a naturalist hike, not a volunteer event.

Description
The MMWD volunteer program strives to connect people to nature and their water source by offering hands-on activities on the Mt. Tamalpais Watershed.
Volunteers are currently engaged in habitat restoration, trails maintenance, environmental education, biological monitoring and geographic information systems mapping.
Through their experiences volunteers gain skills, become stewards, contribute to the health and safety of the watershed and have fun while doing so.
MMWD manages 18,500 acres of land in the Mt. Tamalpais Watershed and 2,750 acres adjacent to the Nicasio and Soulajule reservoirs in west Marin. The Mt. Tamalpais Watershed has been identified by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) as a key component of a biosphere reserve, a designation given to biodiversity hot spots like the Amazon rainforest.
