Palo Corona

I had heard about the relatively new Palo Corona Regional Park and was a little bit familiar with the land from my work, so experiencing the park for the first time was meaningful. Beyond that, it proved to be magical. A decommissioned golf course led to a Carmel River crossing that led to a decommissioned cattle ranch that remains a pristine, mist-shrouded sea of green with surreal oversized oak groves. It's a great achievement of land conservation and public open space.
