Despite the state park system taking the area over in the '70's, China Camp remains an otherwise forgotten strip of tidal lands, islands, and spunky hills on the west shore of San Pablo Bay, or what I call the upper thumb of San Francisco Bay.

When I talk about China Camp I probably give the impression that it is one little village -- albeit an historic Chinese shrimping village -- but China Camp is much more with a shoreline that stretches about six miles with all sorts of nooks and crannys. The area is very popular with mountain bikers.

Love the shapes and forms..the almost abstract nature of the banner image today. Well seen!
Beautiful as always, and inspired. Love the spread of the oak tree with the cattails in front.
