Activity 2

Program 2: education & recreation:save mount diablo publishes a newsletter twice a year to educate the public about the area's natural and cultural history. We host many events on the mountain to encourage recreation while also protecting natural resources. As we have done in prior years, in 2011 we hosted outdoor events geared to a variety of user groups such as hikers, cyclists, runners, artists and scientists. Events included a long distance trail run, a backpacking/hiking trip, a bike ride, and family hikes. We lead many free hikes and a bioblitz on our properties and in parks on mount diablo. We produced another audible diablo trail guide that can be downloaded to any mp3 player for free. Additional information can be found at www.savemountdiablo.org
