    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.

  • 3 Scenic Road Trips Worth the Drive Near Visalia
    Media contact: Suzanne Bianco [email protected] THREE SCENIC DRIVES WORTH THE TRIP THIS SUMMER Visit Visalia’s top picks for road tripping travelers Visalia, Calif. (June 11, 2021) – Visit Visalia is gearing up for an influx of visitors as Covid restrictions are lifted and California opens back up. Anticipating increased summertime travel, Visit Visalia is ready with travel tips and suggestions, and offering their top picks for three scenic drives that will have visitors exploring the local foothills and the national parks in Visalia’s backyard for a classic summer road trip. Road Trip #1: Drive the General’s Highway in Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Park The nearby national parks are filled with scenic vistas and majestic sequoia trees that appear around each turn as you drive through the parks. For travelers who want to see these amazing parks but don't have time for a deep exploration, a road trip through the parks is a great solution. Sequoia and Kings Canyon are two of the most unique in the park system! They are adjacent parks that are linked by the General's Highway which makes for a perfect day drive that spans from the Ash Mountain gate in Sequoia National Park to the Big Stump gate in Kings Canyon. And only one entry fee is required. Road Trip #2: Yokohl Valley to Balch Park and Springville Skirting the southwestern edge of Sequoia National Park (though not accessible), the trip through Yokohl Valley is along the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountains. This route winds past orange groves, cattle ranches and rolling hills dotted with barns and pastures providing a relaxing drive and lots of photo ops.

  • 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.

  • Competitive Renewable Energy Zones
    From: Megan Lawson To: Gungle, Ashley Cc: Hingtgen, Robert J; Patrick BROWN ([email protected]) ([email protected]) Subject: RE: Soitech follow up Date: Friday, October 04, 2013 2:34:46 PM Attachments: image001.png CA_CREZ_Conceptual_Transmission_Segments_Phase_2B_final.pdf Ashley, Here is our response to Mr. Silver's e-mail: Mr. Silver references “Competitive Renewable Energy Zones” (CREZs), which were part of the California Energy Commission’s (CEC) “Renewable Energy Transmission Initiative” (RETI) between 2008 and 2011. From what we can tell, the CEC’s RETI process appears to have stalled in early 2011, and now appears to have been set aside by the Desert Renewable Energy Conservation Plan (DRECP) process. http://www.energy.ca.gov/reti/. As you know, we do not need to address the DRECP in the PEIR because the project areas are located entirely outside of the DRECP area. For the County’s reference, the RETI process identified necessary major updates to the California transmission system to access CREZs. The process identified CREZs that could be developed in the most cost effective and environmentally benign manner. Potential renewable energy projects were grouped into CREZs based on geographic proximity. The CREZ implicated in southern San Diego County is CREZ 27, San Diego South. Each CREZ was developed based on existing and proposed projects (e.g., those projects with a PPA, or PPA pending) and other projects or resources with a high potential of being developed. Because the Soitec projects were not yet proposed at the time of CREZ development (2008- 2010), Soitec’s projects were not accounted for in the CREZ, nor does CREZ 27 account for areas of high solar potential or the most cost-effective or environmentally-benign sites for future solar development.

  • 2021 Magazine
    July 2021 Welcome to the July 2021 edition of BADWATER® Magazine! We are AdventureCORPS®, producers of ultra-endurance sports events and adventure travel across the globe, and the force behind the BADWATER® brand. This magazine celebrates the entire world-wide Badwater® / AdventureCORPS® series of races, all the Badwater Services, Gear, Drinks, and Clothing, and what we like to call the Badwater Family and the Badwater Way of Life. Adventure is our way of life, so – after the sad and disastrous 2020 when we were not able to host any of our life-changing events – we are pleased to be fully back in action in 2021! Well, make that almost fully: Due to pandemic travel bans still in place, international participation in our USA-based events is not where we want it and that’s really unfortunate. Badwater 135 is the de facto Olympics of Ultrarunning and the 135-Mile World Championship, so we always want as many nationalities represented as possible. (The inside front cover of this magazine celebrates all sixty-one nationalities which have been represented on the Badwater 135 start line over the years.) Our new six-day stage race across Armenia – Artsakh Ultra – will have to wait yet another year to debut in 2022, two years later than planned. But it will be incredible, the ultimate stage race with six days of world-class trail running through several millennia of incredible culture and history, and across the most dramatic and awe-inspiring landscapes. This year, we are super excited to have brought two virtual races to life, first for the 31 days of January, and then for 16 days in April.
