Habitat
It's this time of year with the rain sheeting on redwoods a short leap from my door, that we are especially reminded we inhabit the southern range of the coastal temperate rainforest extending from Seldovia to Big Sur. Having worked summers in the spruce-covered islands of the Alexander Archipelago, as well as the fir and cedar laden shores of the San Juan Islands, these redwood forests of the Marin Peninsula--laced with salmon and steelhead streams--form a tangible connection through both space and time.
