About Muir Woods
KQED's QUEST is a new multimedia series about the people behind San Francisco Bay Area science and environmental issues and how their work is changing the way we live.
Share and discuss your photos of the Muir Woods National Monument, and we will link to them in one of our web-based science hikes under the " Visitor's Photos" tab:
See the Muir Woods Science Hike on the KQED QUEST website.
FYI - it may take a few minutes for your photos to be linked from KQED's QUEST website. Thanks for contributing!
About Muir Woods
Muir Woods National Monument is a part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA), one of the largest urban national parks in the world. GGNRA was established in 1972 and contains 75,398 acres extend from Tomales Bay in Marin County to San Mateo County in the south, encompassing 59 miles of shoreline - one of the nation’s largest coastal preserves.
You may not think of salmon when visiting the redwoods in Muir Woods, but it’s home to a population of Coho Salmon. Redwood forests provide ideal salmon habitat, providing woody debris to protect young salmon in the creeks and keeping them shaded and cool. But the Coho in Muir Wood’s Redwood Creek are endangered, and local biologists and volunteers are working to protect the salmon and restore their habitat.
