SUMMER 2018 Mprpd.Org Preserving and Protecting Parks and Open
SUMMER 2018 mprpd.org Monterey Peninsula Regional Park District LET’S GO CELEBRATING 10 YEARS! OUTDOORS! Your adventure activities guide for all ages Preserving and Protecting Parks and Open Space AMessagefromtheGeneralManager Dear Friends, The greatest challenges sometimes create the greatest opportunities, resulting in the greatest outcomes. Such was the case when private land owners, the community, The Trust for Public Land, Santa Lucia Conservancy (SLC), Trout Unlimited, Welcome State of California, County of Monterey, Monterey Peninsula Regional Park District (MPRPD), and others combined their vision and work to create the Rancho Cañada unit of Palo Corona Regional Park from the former Rancho Cañada Golf Club. In April, The Trust for Public Land transferred ownership of the property to the residents and visitors of the Central Coast. SLC Executive Director Christy Fischer stated, “From the beginning, this project has been about a community coming together around a shared vision.” MPRPD’s acquisition of Rancho Cañada will facilitate one of the nation’s most significant environmental and cultural resource restoration, preservation and conservation projects. “As this new parkland is restored to improve the health and future of our river, native plants and wildlife, I hope it will also be a place where visitors can learn about and celebrate the ways and wisdom of its first people. It is a great gift to us all.” - Linda Yamane, Rumsen Ohlone Tribal historian “The land had been in our family since the late 1800s. Protecting the land and preserving it for future generations is my family’s way of showing tribute to my great-grandfather, William Hatton.

Foundation Document Overview, Pinnacles National Park, California
NATIONAL PARK SERVICE • U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR Foundation Document Overview Pinnacles National Park California Contact Information For more information about the Pinnacles National Park Foundation Document, contact: [email protected] or (831) 389-4485 or write to: Superintendent, Pinnacles National Park, 5000 Highway 146, Paicines, CA 95043 Fundamental Resources and Values Interpretive Themes Fundamental resources and values are those features, systems, processes, experiences, stories, scenes, sounds, smells, or other attributes determined to merit primary consideration during planning and management processes because they are essential to achieving the purpose of the park and maintaining its significance. The following fundamental resources and values have been identified for Pinnacles National Park: • Landforms and Geologic Faults Reflecting Past and Present Tectonic Forces • Scenic Views and Wild Character • Talus Caves Photo by Paul G. Johnson • Opportunities for Research and Study • Native Species and Ecological Processes Interpretive themes are often described as the key stories or concepts that visitors should understand after visiting a park—they define the most important ideas or concepts communicated to visitors about a park unit. Themes are derived from—and should reflect—park purpose, significance, resources, and values. The set of interpretive themes is complete when it provides the structure necessary for park staff to develop opportunities for visitors to explore and relate to all of the park significances and fundamental resources and values. • Over millions of years, the power of volcanism, erosion, and plate tectonics created and transformed the Pinnacles Volcanic Field into the dramatic canyons, monoliths, and rock spires seen today. The offset of the Pinnacles Volcanics from the identical Neenach Volcanics 200 miles to the south provides key evidence for the theory of plate tectonics.

Discover California State Parks in the Monterey Area
Crashing waves, redwoods and historic sites Discover California State Parks in the Monterey Area Some of the most beautiful sights in California can be found in Monterey area California State Parks. Rocky cliffs, crashing waves, redwood trees, and historic sites are within an easy drive of each other. "When you look at the diversity of state parks within the Monterey District area, you begin to realize that there is something for everyone - recreational activities, scenic beauty, natural and cultural history sites, and educational programs,” said Dave Schaechtele, State Parks Monterey District Public Information Officer. “There are great places to have fun with families and friends, and peaceful and inspirational settings that are sure to bring out the poet, writer, photographer, or artist in you. Some people return to their favorite state parks, year-after-year, while others venture out and discover some new and wonderful places that are then added to their 'favorites' list." State Parks in the area include: Limekiln State Park, 54 miles south of Carmel off Highway One and two miles south of the town of Lucia, features vistas of the Big Sur coast, redwoods, and the remains of historic limekilns. The Rockland Lime and Lumber Company built these rock and steel furnaces in 1887 to cook the limestone mined from the canyon walls. The 711-acre park allows visitors an opportunity to enjoy the atmosphere of Big Sur’s southern coast. The park has the only safe access to the shoreline along this section of cast. For reservations at the park’s 36 campsites, call ReserveAmerica at (800) 444- PARK (7275).
