Information

You now stand amoung 100-200 year old coast live oaks. Notice how quiet is it here, how little sound travels from urban spaces to this location. Oaks are well known to serve as sound barriers. Although this grove may not currently harbor Sudden Oak Death (SOD) infection, the pathogen is rapidly infecting much of the Bay Area. SOD infects and kills many species and has forever changed Bay Area forests. Some forest stands have experienced greater than 80% tree mortality.
