Adventure: Finding Nature Nearby

Spring is here and in most places, the weather is beautiful! Unfortunately, we can't always get away for a long backcountry adventure so why not explore the natural places near you. If you live in the San Francisco Bay Area, Golden Gate National Park Conservancy is one of the world's largest national parks in an urban area—80,000 acres stretched 80 miles north to south, encompassing 130 miles of trails, 1,000 types of plants, 250 bird species, and 700 historic structures. It is a wonderful place for people to hike, camp, swim, and enjoy nature. Get out this weekend and go on a local adventure for some sun, exercise and outdoor therapy!
