DESCRIPTION:After an extensive and collaborative public engagement process, California 
 State Parks will share a summary of the guiding vision for the 
 reestablishment of Big Basin Redwoods State Park following the 2020 CZU 
 Complex Fire. During this pop-up event, a gallery of information will be on 
 display including materials to take home and share with your family, 
 friends, and community. Staff will make a short presentation at 6pm and 
 will be available to answer questions throughout the event. We look forward 
 to seeing you there!\n\nState Parks will pursue the following strategies to 
 meet the guiding principles for the reestablished park:\n\n* Locating 
 visitor parking and buildings outside the old growth and providing a 
 shuttle.\n* Within the old growth, prioritizing for resiliency, ecological 
 process, and natural experience.\n* Relocating some camping experiences 
 outside the core of old growth area.\n* Managing visitor use throughout the 
 park to minimize congestion and to provide a variety of experiences.\n* 
 Increasing inclusive and diverse storytelling.\n* Pursuing partnerships to 
 restore Native ceremonial space and land stewardship.\n* Managing natural 
 resources at a landscape scale, informed by traditional ecological 
 knowledge, tribal expertise, and scientific understanding.\n* Designing 
 facilities based on sustainability and resiliency.\n* Increasing trail 
 experiences by restoring the trail network and by pursuing new trail 
 access.\n\nThe public is invited to discuss the draft Reimagining Big Basin 
 Vision that will be publicly shared at a community presentation on Friday, 
 June 3, from 5 to 7 p.m. at the Boulder Creek Recreation Hall, 13333 
 Middleton Ave., Boulder Creek, CA 95006.\n\n“Redwoods are too big for 
 small dreams, and Reimagining Big Basin is ambitious: it prioritizes the 
 oldest trees in the park, now and into the future,” said Sempervirens 
 Fund Executive Director Sara Barth. “How visitors can access these areas 
 and enjoy them will continue to evolve in future phases of planning, but it 
 is paramount to protect the oldest forests so they can recover, thrive once 
 more, and continue to establish the healthy forests of the 
 future.”\n\nState Parks initiated the Reimagining Big Basin project in 
 summer 2021 to begin the planning process for permanent park facilities. 
 This process has included public events and activities to hear from 
 partners, stakeholders and the community to assess the priorities for 
 rebuilding. The Reimagining Big Basin Vision highlights themes that emerged 
 from the public process, including forest resiliency and how to be 
 inclusive to California’s diverse population as park facilities are 
 reestablished.\n\nReestablishing full access to the reimagined park is 
 expected to take several years. Planning will continue in phases. To get
