MOUNT DIABLO 101  Take a hike with Seth Adams, who’s been roaming Mount Diablo on behalf of the conservation organization Save Mount Diablo since 1988. As Seth explains, the mountain was sacred to Native Americans, they saw it as the place where the world was created. For the Europeans who came later, it was a navigational landmark and place to map the Bay Area. Late in the 19th century, its coal fueled California’s industrial development. Today, it’s a real wilderness within an hour’s drive of millions of  people.

Presented by Save Mount Diablo in partnership with Mount Diablo Interpretive Association.
