Las Gallinas Sanitary District
Wednesday, February 28, 2024, 10am – 12pm
The ponds at the Las Gallinas water treatment facility are a fabulous place to get close looks at a variety of waterfowl, plus there are usually plenty of hawks hunting for rodents and other prey in the surrounding fields. We'll follow a level gravel fire road that runs alongside the ponds. Remember to bring binoculars if you have them. No pets (except service dogs) are allowed. Adverse weather or poor air quality may cancel.
Questions: Contact Shannon Burke at SBurke@marincounty.org.
Registration is required.
Directions: Meet at the Las Gallinas Sanitary District water treatment ponds in San Rafael (310 Smith Ranch Road). From Hwy 101 in San Rafael, take the exit for Smith Ranch Rd east approximately 0.7 miles. Drive over the railroad tracks and immediately turn left to stay on Smith Ranch Rd. (If you go through the park entrance, you have gone too far). Follow Smith Ranch Rd 0.8 miles to treatment facility. Park on the left.
