Along the way we will survey the state of the beach and collect marine debris. Meet at 9:00am at the Humboldt Coastal Nature Center for a shuttle to Mad River County Park. Approximate hiking time is three hours. Shuttle space limited; please call to sign-up. Dress in layers, bring a sack lunch, water sunscreen and hat.
