Go On A Lichen Hike V2

This hike was originally scheduled for Sept 23 (as part of Mt Tamalpais State Park Science Quest Day), but had to be cancelled. Folks who RSVP'd to the original hike will be given early access to sign up. Then Friends of Mt Tam Members and then the general public.

Come learn about the mesmerizing yet often overlooked world of lichens! We will meet at the Rock Springs trailhead, and walk a loop trail to meet some of the charismatic lichens of the area. These grow on rocks, trees, and on the ground. Participants will get to know certain lichen species, as well as lichen growth forms, and lichen ecology. The hike will be easy to moderate, with frequent stops to look at lichens. Bring a magnifying glass or hand lens if you have one - lichens are even more fascinating up close!
