Muir Woods Visit #3



Today I met with Mia Monroe who is a Supervisor at Muir Woods. She was EXTREMELY helpful to me and gave me some really insightful information. We have another meeting scheduled for this coming Monday, October 12 where she will have more time to answer my in-depth questions. I was a little frustrated with the surveys today. I printed out 100 of them and planned on passing them out at the park but Mia told me I couldn't. She said there was a small area near the restrooms where 1st amendment rights were upheld and people were able to do as they wish as long as it doesn't infringe on others' rights. Problem was, EVERYONE I asked was either too tired, not interested, late for their bus/ride, carrying children, etc. I got absolutely NO ONE to fill out my survey and I was sitting there for almost 30 minutes. Super frustrated, I left and stopped at 2 hotel nearby. The first would not allow me to leave any surveys or ask their guests to fill them out! WHY THE HELL NOT??! Anyways, Desiree at the Holiday Inn Express totally felt for me and allowed me to leave a nice stack at their front desk. Now, only time will tell if they ask anyone to fill them out! Grr...this sucks!

Here are some photos I took of the signage or lack of signage along 3 of the trails I explored today:
