Geology Rocks the Hills!

Geology Rocks the Hills!

By Don Edwards SF Bay National Wildlife Refuge

Overview

Join a nature hike and discover the amazing world of rocks at the Refuge!

Ever wondered why the Coyote Hills rise up out of the surrounding marshland? Take a walk with geologist and educator Dr. Malcolm Pringle around the hills of the refuge. Observe rocks that formed deep in the ocean during the time of the dinosaurs. Ponder how they could have joined North America, then been uplifted to form the rocks, colors, and soils that provide the footing of the varied plants and animals that we see now.

Sturdy walking shoes recommended. This program meets outside the visitor center at 2 Marshlands Road, Fremont. Registration required!
