Between the Central Valley and the Pacific Coast lies a rugged landscape of folded mountains, wild canyons, and extraordinary diversity. Bob Schneider, one author of the new second edition of the book "Exploring the Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monument," will reveal the story of this lesser-known corner of California - its ancient geology, rare plants, rich wildlife, and enduring human presence. Through his storytelling, we will learn about this remarkable region where tectonic plates meet, fire renews, and conservation continues to evolve. Copies of the book will be available for purchase.
