Please sign the Waiver for Marin Chapter 2024 if you haven't done so already.
Kent Pump Road offers a beautiful, gentle, and biodiverse hike through the Lagunitas Creek Watershed from Alpine Dam toward the upper reaches of Kent Lake. We will amble along this riparian corridor and enjoy the diverse vegetation of the area. Highlights will include forest understory plants, mossy rock outcrops, a rare lichen, and one undescribed wildflower known only in the surrounding area.
This hike is a shady out-and-back on a dirt fire road with an easy difficulty level. We will walk as far as we can in the allotted time, perhaps 1.5 miles each way at maximum. The Marin Chapter (CNPSmarin.org) has a plant list for the area called, ALPINE DAM TO KENT LAKE PUMP ROAD, MMWD, which would be useful for those of you interested.
Bring layers, water, and a lunch.
