(Photo: Liza Gross)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Physicist Paul Doherty, a longtime fixture on the museum floor (or as staffers like to call him, a “roving brain”), spent the better part of the day stationed in front of an exhibit that he’d developed with artist Shawn Lani called \u003ca href=\"http://exs.exploratorium.edu/exhibits/floating-in-copper/\">“Floating in Copper.”\u003c/a> Half teacher, half carnival barker, Doherty beckoned a young man puzzling over the contraption to have a go at the exhibit: “Your job, should you choose to accept it, is to lift up this magnet and make it fly!” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The visitor gamely complied, and slid a magnet along the top half of two sheets of copper separated by a gap big enough to give a hockey-puck shaped magnet room to levitate, or so it appeared. The bottom magnet performed as expected, rising between the copper casings, to the young man’s delight. “Now try to hold it in between,” Doherty said. “What the copper does is slow down the motion, allowing your mere human eye and brain and hand time to do it.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Ah, okay!” exclaimed the young man, unwittingly demonstrating a museum mantra that learning how things work is fun. And that magic, and real understanding, happens when you help people engineer their own “a-ha!” moments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Doherty recalled how the exhibit was born, like so many others, through an accidental discovery. He was playing around in the machine shop one day, trying to make an exhibit with magnets and aluminum. He was using neodymium magnets, also known as rare earth magnets, the strongest magnets made. He happened to drop a magnet onto a piece of aluminum and noticed that it fell slowly. “And I thought, oh, that’s interesting, I wonder what I can do with a slowly falling magnet.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_48517\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/2013/01/09/exploratorium%e2%80%99s-science-with-spirit-transcends-place/5pm-closing-the-gate/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-48517\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2013/01/5pm-closing-the-gate-640x360.jpg\" alt=\"exploratorium gate closes at the PFA\" title=\"5pm closing the gate\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" class=\"size-large wp-image-48517\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">End of an era: Long-time staff close the front gate to the Exploratorium museum floor for the last time.

After all, what’s cooler than making something levitate?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We switched from aluminum to copper because copper has twice the conductivity as aluminum, which means it will have half the speed,” he said. “Then Shawn came up with the beautiful aesthetic design.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I put my hand in between the copper shells and tried to move the magnet, but found it surprisingly difficult. Copper is like a two-year-old, Doherty said. “It always opposes you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The exhibit, like so many Exploratorium offerings, manages to engage children while puzzling scientists. Having enjoyed a stint as a writer for this crazy, category-defying museum, I can assure you this is no simple feat. At their best, the 1,000 or so exhibits developed at the Exploratorium over its first 43 years first surprise, then delight, as you realize what they’re showing you. But the real magic happens when they challenge you to see the world a little bit differently. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After all the visitors had gone, \u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_p5UoD6ljg\">physicist Thomas Humphrey\u003c/a> recalled a day nearly 30 years ago, when the vast exhibition hall was empty save for Humphrey and longtime \u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxoB5dYZg_Y\">exhibit developer Dave Fleming\u003c/a>, and Fleming started playing his banjo. Humphrey walked around the museum, thinking, as any flat-picking particle physicist might, that there are 3 million cubic feet in the building and every one of those cubic feet has music in it. Just as Fleming’s banjo filled the place with music on that day, Humphrey said, the building is full of Exploratorium spirit. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Every one of those 3 million cubic feet is full of our spirit, of what we created. We gave it life.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the Exploratorium opens the doors of its new home on Pier 15 in April, you can bet that spirit will be waiting for anyone who wanders in. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>******\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/2013/01/09/exploratorium%e2%80%99s-science-with-spirit-transcends-place/zoom0061-solong/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-48522\">Listen to the Exploratorium Explainers bid museum-goers adieu by singing their own version of \"So Long, Farewell.\"\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the next few months, until the museum re-opens on Pier 15 April 17, \"Explainers\" in orange vests will bring the Exploratorium to \"pop up\" spots around San Francisco every week.

(Photo: Liza Gross)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Physicist Paul Doherty, a longtime fixture on the museum floor (or as staffers like to call him, a “roving brain”), spent the better part of the day stationed in front of an exhibit that he’d developed with artist Shawn Lani called \u003ca href=\"http://exs.exploratorium.edu/exhibits/floating-in-copper/\">“Floating in Copper.”\u003c/a> Half teacher, half carnival barker, Doherty beckoned a young man puzzling over the contraption to have a go at the exhibit: “Your job, should you choose to accept it, is to lift up this magnet and make it fly!” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The visitor gamely complied, and slid a magnet along the top half of two sheets of copper separated by a gap big enough to give a hockey-puck shaped magnet room to levitate, or so it appeared. The bottom magnet performed as expected, rising between the copper casings, to the young man’s delight. “Now try to hold it in between,” Doherty said. “What the copper does is slow down the motion, allowing your mere human eye and brain and hand time to do it.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Ah, okay!” exclaimed the young man, unwittingly demonstrating a museum mantra that learning how things work is fun. And that magic, and real understanding, happens when you help people engineer their own “a-ha!” moments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Doherty recalled how the exhibit was born, like so many others, through an accidental discovery. He was playing around in the machine shop one day, trying to make an exhibit with magnets and aluminum. He was using neodymium magnets, also known as rare earth magnets, the strongest magnets made. He happened to drop a magnet onto a piece of aluminum and noticed that it fell slowly. “And I thought, oh, that’s interesting, I wonder what I can do with a slowly falling magnet.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_48517\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/2013/01/09/exploratorium%e2%80%99s-science-with-spirit-transcends-place/5pm-closing-the-gate/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-48517\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2013/01/5pm-closing-the-gate-640x360.jpg\" alt=\"exploratorium gate closes at the PFA\" title=\"5pm closing the gate\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" class=\"size-large wp-image-48517\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">End of an era: Long-time staff close the front gate to the Exploratorium museum floor for the last time. (Photo: Liza Gross)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>After days of playing around and talking with resident artist Shawn Lani, the two settled on the notion of flying magnets. After all, what’s cooler than making something levitate?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We switched from aluminum to copper because copper has twice the conductivity as aluminum, which means it will have half the speed,” he said. “Then Shawn came up with the beautiful aesthetic design.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I put my hand in between the copper shells and tried to move the magnet, but found it surprisingly difficult. Copper is like a two-year-old, Doherty said. “It always opposes you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The exhibit, like so many Exploratorium offerings, manages to engage children while puzzling scientists. Having enjoyed a stint as a writer for this crazy, category-defying museum, I can assure you this is no simple feat. At their best, the 1,000 or so exhibits developed at the Exploratorium over its first 43 years first surprise, then delight, as you realize what they’re showing you. But the real magic happens when they challenge you to see the world a little bit differently. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After all the visitors had gone, \u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_p5UoD6ljg\">physicist Thomas Humphrey\u003c/a> recalled a day nearly 30 years ago, when the vast exhibition hall was empty save for Humphrey and longtime \u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxoB5dYZg_Y\">exhibit developer Dave Fleming\u003c/a>, and Fleming started playing his banjo. Humphrey walked around the museum, thinking, as any flat-picking particle physicist might, that there are 3 million cubic feet in the building and every one of those cubic feet has music in it. Just as Fleming’s banjo filled the place with music on that day, Humphrey said, the building is full of Exploratorium spirit. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Every one of those 3 million cubic feet is full of our spirit, of what we created. We gave it life.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the Exploratorium opens the doors of its new home on Pier 15 in April, you can bet that spirit will be waiting for anyone who wanders in. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>******\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/2013/01/09/exploratorium%e2%80%99s-science-with-spirit-transcends-place/zoom0061-solong/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-48522\">Listen to the Exploratorium Explainers bid museum-goers adieu by singing their own version of \"So Long, Farewell.\"\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the next few months, until the museum re-opens on Pier 15 April 17, \"Explainers\" in orange vests will bring the Exploratorium to \"pop up\" spots around San Francisco every week.

The dam, made of interlocking concrete blocks, survived the 1906 earthquake with little damage. The four reservoirs of the Peninsula Watershed are in the valley created by the San Andreas fault.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It flows downhill for miles and miles until it reaches your tap. On its way, it passes towering fir forests, distinctive grasslands, and the habitat of many rare and endangered species. It's San Francisco's water, resting on the San Andreas fault, replenished constantly by the cycles of nature, and delivered to you via ingenious Civil War-era engineering.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The history and nature surrounding the San Francisco Peninsula Watershed make it much more than a pastiche of hillsides and reservoirs. The watershed, managed by the Public Utilities Commission, is home to trails that offer access to remote wilderness, Northern California geology, and unique opportunities to appreciate the complexity of providing 2.4 million people with a clean water supply.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some trails follow the outlines of reservoirs; others lead to hillside hikes that provide wide-angle views of the watershed. The Sawyer Camp trail, one of the most heavily used in the Bay Area, skirts the edges of Crystal Springs and San Andreas reservoirs, via a six-mile accessible paved path. At the northern edge of PUC land is the Sweeny Ridge trail, managed by the national park service, a 600-foot climb to sweeping views and a favorite with mountain bikers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Visiting the two areas we've explored here on the QUEST website lends a dual understanding of the watershed and its simultaneous protection from and integration into the surrounding metro area. The Fifield-Cahill Ridge trail, in a carefully preserved area that includes old growth Douglas firs, demonstrates differing views of conservation measures taken over 15 decades. On the other side of interstate 280, a hike starting from the Pulgas Water Temple gives visitors a chance to ponder the enormity of the task of bringing water halfway across the state, downhill through the mountains, to a growing Bay Area population.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Fifield-Cahill Ridge trail\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003cimg src=\"http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2569/3750665226_f3abefef74.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\">\u003c/span>\u003cem>A stand of Monterey pines along the Fifiled-Cahill Ridge trail serve as a reminder of past conservation ethics, when ecologists deemed tree-planting as a most vital activity. Though they are from the nearby Monterey Bay region, these trees aren’t native to these more northern hills. They were likely planted in the 1930s, possibly to promote fog drip in the hopes that it would contribute to the reservoirs.\u003c/em> Running a 10-mile length through the area's many habitats, the Fifield-Cahill trail may be the watershed's most special excursion. It was closed to the public until 2003, and even now only parties of 20 or less are allowed, and must be accompanied by a trail guide. Why? It's all in the interest of preserving the habitat and resources here, and protecting the reservoirs from fire, erosion, and pollution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can make reservations to explore the trail on foot, bicycle or horse by visiting \u003ca href=\"http://trail.sfwater.org\">trail.sfwater.org.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Along the trail, hikers get views of all four of the watershed's reservoirs, as well as a vista of the city, old-growth forests, and a chance to glimpse some rare and endangered species. These reservoirs were the impetus for establishing a protected wilderness here 150 years ago, and they've been vital to the development of San Francisco. Their dams were all built between 1860 and 1880, and survived the 1906 earthquake, despite their locations along the San Andreas fault line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The landscape here is perfect for catching rainfall. Coastal marine layers move on shore over the hillsides, dumping lots of rain into the rift valley. The area around Pilarcitos reservoir can sometimes receive four or five times the rainfall of the airport, which is only 5 miles away. On their own, the four reservoirs—Upper and Lower Crystal Springs, Pilarcitos, and San Andreas—provides about ten percent of San Francisco's water supply.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Pulgas Water Temple and Sheep Camp trail\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003cimg src=\"http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2605/4231850301_4fb21704e0.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\">\u003c/span>\u003cem>The Pulgas Water Temple was built at the terminus of the Hetch Hetchy aqueduct as a monument to the new water system. It’s located within the watershed, just south of Crystal Springs reservoir. An inscription at the top reads, “I give waters in the wilderness and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people,” a biblical quote from Isaiah. \u003c/em>So where does the rest of the city's vital H2O come from? The Pulgas Water Temple tells this part of the story, and a climb from the Temple to a nearby ridgetop affords broad brush views of the watershed, putting the whole water narrative together.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco long ago outgrew its four reservoirs. In 1909, with memories of the '06 earthquake's unquenchable fires still vivid, the city of San Francisco purchased land in the Hetch Hetchy Valley in Yosemite National Park with the intention to dam the Tuolomie river. The next year, the city voted to build the dam and a 160-mile-long system to carry the water from the mountains to the San Andreas valley, and in 1913 Congress allowed the construction. The effort expended was enormous: $45 million dollars, twenty years of construction, a few deaths and a great deal of politics. In 1934, the first rush of Hetch Hetchy water flowed through the gravity-driven tunnel system, across the California's central valley. It swooshed through the base of the Pulgas Water Temple and into nearby Crystal Springs reservoir while San Franciscans cheered, and some conservationists frowned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003cimg src=\"http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2668/4134114633_cc78c13947.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\">\u003c/span>\u003cem>Signs at the start of the Sheep Camp trail let visitors know that this is protected land. \u003c/em>The ascension up Sheep Camp trail connects the Hetchy water to its final destination. Climbing to the ridge top east of 280, hikers pass through coastal oak scrub, until reaching the viewpoint. Here, you can see across the valley, taking in Crystal Springs reservoir and the pine and fir stands that the Fifield-Cahill trail passes through, Trekkers with a fondness for geology will appreciate this scene: the reservoir in view sits atop the San Andreas fault, meaning that a hiker here is standing on one tectonic plate and looking out at another, the distant hills moving southward, ever so slowly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Being able to see two tectonic plates isn't entirely uncommon in the Bay Area. But this vista brings together so much more: an illustration of how humans have made use of the valley created by these plate movements, and harnessed the landscape's natural slope and the resources in the mountains hundreds of miles east, all with the purpose of providing water—California's original gold—to the people who flock here for the very magic this set of hikes offers. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Visitor Photos\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Join our \u003ca href=\"http://flickr.com/groups/1327110@N23\">Pulgas Water Temple Area photo group on Flickr\u003c/a> to share your photos of this amazing place.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Additional Links\u003c/h2>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://sfwater.org/mto_main.cfm/MC_ID/20/MSC_ID/177/MTO_ID/308\">Pulgas Water Temple\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"The San Francisco Peninsula Watershed, managed by the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission, is home to trails that offer access to remote wilderness, Northern California geology, and opportunities to appreciate the complexity of providing 2.4 million people with a clean water supply.","status":"publish","parent":0,"modified":1450471646,"stats":{"hasAudio":false,"hasVideo":false,"hasChartOrMap":true,"iframeSrcs":["http://www.everytrail.com/guide/pulgas-water-temple-area-exploration/"],"hasGoogleForm":false,"hasGallery":false,"hasHearkenModule":false,"hasPolis":false,"paragraphCount":28,"wordCount":1601},"headData":{"title":"Exploring the Pulgas Water Temple Area | KQED","description":"","ogTitle":"","ogDescription":"","ogImgId":"","twTitle":"","twDescription":"","twImgId":""},"disqusIdentifier":"14967 http://science.kqed.org/quest/science-hike/pulgas-water-temple-area/","disqusUrl":"https://ww2.kqed.org/quest/2009/12/30/pulgas-water-temple-area/","disqusTitle":"Exploring the Pulgas Water Temple Area","source":"Science Hike","sourceUrl":"https://ww2.kqed.org/quest/tag/science-hike/","path":"/quest/14967/pulgas-water-temple-area","audioTrackLength":null,"parsedContent":[{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"http://www.everytrail.com/guide/pulgas-water-temple-area-exploration/?embed=true\" width=\"980\" height=\"450\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This Exploration created in collaboration with the \u003c/em>\u003ca href=\"http://www.exploratorium.edu\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/imp/explo_logo_black3.gif\" border=\"0\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan src=\"http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2605/4231850301_4fb21704e0.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\">\u003c/span>\u003cem>The Pulgas Water Temple was built at the terminus of the Hetch Hetchy aqueduct as a monument to the new water system.

The dam, made of interlocking concrete blocks, survived the 1906 earthquake with little damage. The four reservoirs of the Peninsula Watershed are in the valley created by the San Andreas fault.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It flows downhill for miles and miles until it reaches your tap. On its way, it passes towering fir forests, distinctive grasslands, and the habitat of many rare and endangered species. It's San Francisco's water, resting on the San Andreas fault, replenished constantly by the cycles of nature, and delivered to you via ingenious Civil War-era engineering.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The history and nature surrounding the San Francisco Peninsula Watershed make it much more than a pastiche of hillsides and reservoirs. The watershed, managed by the Public Utilities Commission, is home to trails that offer access to remote wilderness, Northern California geology, and unique opportunities to appreciate the complexity of providing 2.4 million people with a clean water supply.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some trails follow the outlines of reservoirs; others lead to hillside hikes that provide wide-angle views of the watershed. The Sawyer Camp trail, one of the most heavily used in the Bay Area, skirts the edges of Crystal Springs and San Andreas reservoirs, via a six-mile accessible paved path. At the northern edge of PUC land is the Sweeny Ridge trail, managed by the national park service, a 600-foot climb to sweeping views and a favorite with mountain bikers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Visiting the two areas we've explored here on the QUEST website lends a dual understanding of the watershed and its simultaneous protection from and integration into the surrounding metro area. The Fifield-Cahill Ridge trail, in a carefully preserved area that includes old growth Douglas firs, demonstrates differing views of conservation measures taken over 15 decades. On the other side of interstate 280, a hike starting from the Pulgas Water Temple gives visitors a chance to ponder the enormity of the task of bringing water halfway across the state, downhill through the mountains, to a growing Bay Area population.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Fifield-Cahill Ridge trail\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003cimg src=\"http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2569/3750665226_f3abefef74.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\">\u003c/span>\u003cem>A stand of Monterey pines along the Fifiled-Cahill Ridge trail serve as a reminder of past conservation ethics, when ecologists deemed tree-planting as a most vital activity. Though they are from the nearby Monterey Bay region, these trees aren’t native to these more northern hills. They were likely planted in the 1930s, possibly to promote fog drip in the hopes that it would contribute to the reservoirs.\u003c/em> Running a 10-mile length through the area's many habitats, the Fifield-Cahill trail may be the watershed's most special excursion. It was closed to the public until 2003, and even now only parties of 20 or less are allowed, and must be accompanied by a trail guide. Why? It's all in the interest of preserving the habitat and resources here, and protecting the reservoirs from fire, erosion, and pollution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can make reservations to explore the trail on foot, bicycle or horse by visiting \u003ca href=\"http://trail.sfwater.org\">trail.sfwater.org.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Along the trail, hikers get views of all four of the watershed's reservoirs, as well as a vista of the city, old-growth forests, and a chance to glimpse some rare and endangered species. These reservoirs were the impetus for establishing a protected wilderness here 150 years ago, and they've been vital to the development of San Francisco. Their dams were all built between 1860 and 1880, and survived the 1906 earthquake, despite their locations along the San Andreas fault line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The landscape here is perfect for catching rainfall. Coastal marine layers move on shore over the hillsides, dumping lots of rain into the rift valley. The area around Pilarcitos reservoir can sometimes receive four or five times the rainfall of the airport, which is only 5 miles away. On their own, the four reservoirs—Upper and Lower Crystal Springs, Pilarcitos, and San Andreas—provides about ten percent of San Francisco's water supply.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Pulgas Water Temple and Sheep Camp trail\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003cimg src=\"http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2605/4231850301_4fb21704e0.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\">\u003c/span>\u003cem>The Pulgas Water Temple was built at the terminus of the Hetch Hetchy aqueduct as a monument to the new water system. It’s located within the watershed, just south of Crystal Springs reservoir. An inscription at the top reads, “I give waters in the wilderness and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people,” a biblical quote from Isaiah. \u003c/em>So where does the rest of the city's vital H2O come from? The Pulgas Water Temple tells this part of the story, and a climb from the Temple to a nearby ridgetop affords broad brush views of the watershed, putting the whole water narrative together.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco long ago outgrew its four reservoirs. In 1909, with memories of the '06 earthquake's unquenchable fires still vivid, the city of San Francisco purchased land in the Hetch Hetchy Valley in Yosemite National Park with the intention to dam the Tuolomie river. The next year, the city voted to build the dam and a 160-mile-long system to carry the water from the mountains to the San Andreas valley, and in 1913 Congress allowed the construction. The effort expended was enormous: $45 million dollars, twenty years of construction, a few deaths and a great deal of politics. In 1934, the first rush of Hetch Hetchy water flowed through the gravity-driven tunnel system, across the California's central valley. It swooshed through the base of the Pulgas Water Temple and into nearby Crystal Springs reservoir while San Franciscans cheered, and some conservationists frowned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003cimg src=\"http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2668/4134114633_cc78c13947.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\">\u003c/span>\u003cem>Signs at the start of the Sheep Camp trail let visitors know that this is protected land. \u003c/em>The ascension up Sheep Camp trail connects the Hetchy water to its final destination. Climbing to the ridge top east of 280, hikers pass through coastal oak scrub, until reaching the viewpoint. Here, you can see across the valley, taking in Crystal Springs reservoir and the pine and fir stands that the Fifield-Cahill trail passes through, Trekkers with a fondness for geology will appreciate this scene: the reservoir in view sits atop the San Andreas fault, meaning that a hiker here is standing on one tectonic plate and looking out at another, the distant hills moving southward, ever so slowly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Being able to see two tectonic plates isn't entirely uncommon in the Bay Area. But this vista brings together so much more: an illustration of how humans have made use of the valley created by these plate movements, and harnessed the landscape's natural slope and the resources in the mountains hundreds of miles east, all with the purpose of providing water—California's original gold—to the people who flock here for the very magic this set of hikes offers. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Visitor Photos\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Join our \u003ca href=\"http://flickr.com/groups/1327110@N23\">Pulgas Water Temple Area photo group on Flickr\u003c/a> to share your photos of this amazing place.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Additional Links\u003c/h2>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://sfwater.org/mto_main.cfm/MC_ID/20/MSC_ID/177/MTO_ID/308\">Pulgas Water Temple\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/quest/14967/pulgas-water-temple-area","authors":["6166","10191"],"categories":["quest_6","quest_9","quest_11"],"tags":["quest_1370","quest_2093","quest_2141","quest_3378","quest_13","quest_3381","quest_2486","quest_2487","quest_3380","quest_2530","quest_13434","quest_3311","quest_3108","quest_3379"],"featImg":"quest_14977","label":"source_quest_14967"},"quest_14989":{"type":"posts","id":"quest_14989","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"quest","id":"14989","score":null,"sort":[1258703873000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"angel-island-exploration","title":"Exploring Angel Island","publishDate":1258703873,"format":"aside","headTitle":"QUEST | KQED Science","labelTerm":{},"content":"\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"http://www.everytrail.com/guide/angel-island-science-hike/map?embed=true\" width=\"980\" height=\"450\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This Exploration created in collaboration with the \u003c/em>\u003ca href=\"http://www.exploratorium.edu\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/imp/explo_logo_black3.gif\" border=\"0\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/imp/angel_island_exploration300.jpg\">\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the middle of San Francisco Bay sits Angel Island State Park, offering spectacular views of the San Francisco skyline, the Marin Headlands and Mount Tamalpais.

From the time of the Civil War until World War II, there was a consistent presence of military men and their families stationed on the island, During their stays, these visitors managed to drop, discard, or leave behind many interesting traces of themselves. Senior State Archaeologist Breck Parkman has been sifting through artifacts on Angel Island for over 25 years, piecing together stories of the lives lived on this 700 acre patch of land in the middle of San Francisco Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/imp/breck_doll_leg300.jpg\">\u003c/span>\u003cem>The leg of a century-old ceramic doll recovered from a dump on Angel Island that was made visible by the Oct. 2008 fire.

Fires, of course, can be very destructive. But for an archaeologist, they can also be magically revealing, burning off foliage that may have long covered objects and impacts left behind by previous visitors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Luckily, none of the historic buildings on Angel Island were lost. Instead, the fire burned away grasses and shrubs, exposing some features that archaeologists like Parkman had suspected were there, as well as uncovering some new surprises.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Lay of the Land\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Some of the most readily visible findings were on the surface of Angel Island's landscape, bared and blackened after the fire. In an area on the southern side of island, long dubbed \"Alcatraz gardens,\" Parkman was surprised to find terraces and pipes that had been hidden for decades under the grassy groundcover. \"It was one of the more dramatic things we saw after the fire, because with the grass burned, you could actually see landform,\" he recounts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/imp/sylvia_moonscape_golds_rusts2-300.jpg\">\u003c/span>\u003cem>Vegetation burned to the ground in the area near East Garrison and other parts of the island, exposing landscapes that had previously been invisible.

Parkman sees these piles of bottles as an indication of boredom. Like the inmates at Alcatraz, enlisted men on Angel Island could feel very isolated, with their view of a twinkling city that they couldn't visit. \"I saw gross boredom in the archaeological record,\" he says. \"Men who spent years here felt like they were in prison.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A bit more mysterious is a stash of broken milk bottles revealed by the fire. Perhaps they held some alcohol smuggled onto the island? The story behind them will remain unknown for the moment.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\"The small things forgotten\"\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Parkman found an even bigger treasure trove of new objects when he began digging below the scarred surface of Angel Island. He's long suspected there was a military dump near Camp Reynolds (waypoint 2 on the map), but he'd been unable to find it, despite numerous searches. It was the first place he came after the fire, and to his delight, Parkman found the site littered with thousands of artifacts, including buttons, hardware from clocks, belt buckles and heaps of glass and ceramic shards. Spent military cartridges dated the site back to the 1870s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/imp/breck_mop300.jpg\">\u003c/span>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>A mother-of-pearl brooch from the late 19th century dump. Probably belonging to an officer's wife, it is some of the evidence of the family life of military men stationed on the island. Photo: Breck Parkman\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though he'd worked on the island for decades, this was his first encounter with an abundance of items that demonstrated the presence of women and children: doll parts, miniature tea cups, a mother-of-pearl brooch. \"This is the first time I really saw gender in the archaeological record,\" he notes. \"There are artifacts that only children would use. The wives' artifacts were there, as well as things from the women who worked there, the house help.\" These items show that the dump was used by officers, and Parkman wonders whether the dump used by the enlisted men would look different, with bones from different cuts of meat, or shards from lower quality dishes. He won\"t be able to answer that question, though, until he finds where the enlisted men left their dregs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A dump is sort of like a hidden collection of knowledge,\" Parkman says. He quotes anthropology professor James Deetz, calling these objects \"the small things forgotten\" in early American life. It's in a dump where you find those remnants of everyday existence. \"As archaeologists, we're interested in the physical remains of culture,\" he says. \"I\"m looking at cultural landforms and artifacts that tell a story of how we've lived with this land.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All in all, the fire allowed Parkman to locate 13 new archaeological sites on Angel Island. \"People say, 'What did you discover?' and I say I discovered bits and pieces. But that's really a no-brainer at a historic site after a fire. What's really interesting to me is that I've researched this island for years and I didn't know a lot of things I know now because of the fire.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Visitor Photos\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Join the \u003ca href=\"http://flickr.com/groups/21804895@N00\">Angel Island photo group on Flickr\u003c/a> to share your photos of this amazing place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Credits\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Video captured by Chris Bauer, audio & article by Robin Marks.

From the time of the Civil War until World War II, there was a consistent presence of military men and their families stationed on the island, During their stays, these visitors managed to drop, discard, or leave behind many interesting traces of themselves. Senior State Archaeologist Breck Parkman has been sifting through artifacts on Angel Island for over 25 years, piecing together stories of the lives lived on this 700 acre patch of land in the middle of San Francisco Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/imp/breck_doll_leg300.jpg\">\u003c/span>\u003cem>The leg of a century-old ceramic doll recovered from a dump on Angel Island that was made visible by the Oct. 2008 fire. Photo: Breck Parkman\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On October 12, 2008, a fire that started in one of the island's campgrounds burned just under half of Angel Island's acreage. Fires, of course, can be very destructive. But for an archaeologist, they can also be magically revealing, burning off foliage that may have long covered objects and impacts left behind by previous visitors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Luckily, none of the historic buildings on Angel Island were lost. Instead, the fire burned away grasses and shrubs, exposing some features that archaeologists like Parkman had suspected were there, as well as uncovering some new surprises.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Lay of the Land\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Some of the most readily visible findings were on the surface of Angel Island's landscape, bared and blackened after the fire. In an area on the southern side of island, long dubbed \"Alcatraz gardens,\" Parkman was surprised to find terraces and pipes that had been hidden for decades under the grassy groundcover. \"It was one of the more dramatic things we saw after the fire, because with the grass burned, you could actually see landform,\" he recounts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/imp/sylvia_moonscape_golds_rusts2-300.jpg\">\u003c/span>\u003cem>Vegetation burned to the ground in the area near East Garrison and other parts of the island, exposing landscapes that had previously been invisible.

But after the fire, Parkman saw terrace after terrace, with water lines feeding them. \"You can see that this was a really flourishing garden for years that's now fallen into disrepair.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/imp/breck_bot300.jpg\">\u003c/span>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>A beer bottle found hidden in some rocks along with several other bottles.

Parkman sees these piles of bottles as an indication of boredom. Like the inmates at Alcatraz, enlisted men on Angel Island could feel very isolated, with their view of a twinkling city that they couldn't visit. \"I saw gross boredom in the archaeological record,\" he says. \"Men who spent years here felt like they were in prison.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A bit more mysterious is a stash of broken milk bottles revealed by the fire. Perhaps they held some alcohol smuggled onto the island? The story behind them will remain unknown for the moment.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\"The small things forgotten\"\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Parkman found an even bigger treasure trove of new objects when he began digging below the scarred surface of Angel Island. He's long suspected there was a military dump near Camp Reynolds (waypoint 2 on the map), but he'd been unable to find it, despite numerous searches. It was the first place he came after the fire, and to his delight, Parkman found the site littered with thousands of artifacts, including buttons, hardware from clocks, belt buckles and heaps of glass and ceramic shards. Spent military cartridges dated the site back to the 1870s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/imp/breck_mop300.jpg\">\u003c/span>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>A mother-of-pearl brooch from the late 19th century dump. Probably belonging to an officer's wife, it is some of the evidence of the family life of military men stationed on the island. Photo: Breck Parkman\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though he'd worked on the island for decades, this was his first encounter with an abundance of items that demonstrated the presence of women and children: doll parts, miniature tea cups, a mother-of-pearl brooch. \"This is the first time I really saw gender in the archaeological record,\" he notes. \"There are artifacts that only children would use. The wives' artifacts were there, as well as things from the women who worked there, the house help.\" These items show that the dump was used by officers, and Parkman wonders whether the dump used by the enlisted men would look different, with bones from different cuts of meat, or shards from lower quality dishes. He won\"t be able to answer that question, though, until he finds where the enlisted men left their dregs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A dump is sort of like a hidden collection of knowledge,\" Parkman says. He quotes anthropology professor James Deetz, calling these objects \"the small things forgotten\" in early American life. It's in a dump where you find those remnants of everyday existence. \"As archaeologists, we're interested in the physical remains of culture,\" he says. \"I\"m looking at cultural landforms and artifacts that tell a story of how we've lived with this land.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All in all, the fire allowed Parkman to locate 13 new archaeological sites on Angel Island. \"People say, 'What did you discover?' and I say I discovered bits and pieces. But that's really a no-brainer at a historic site after a fire. What's really interesting to me is that I've researched this island for years and I didn't know a lot of things I know now because of the fire.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Visitor Photos\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Join the \u003ca href=\"http://flickr.com/groups/21804895@N00\">Angel Island photo group on Flickr\u003c/a> to share your photos of this amazing place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Credits\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Video captured by Chris Bauer, audio & article by Robin Marks.

The dam, made of interlocking concrete blocks, survived the 1906 earthquake with little damage. The four reservoirs of the Peninsula Watershed are in the valley created by the San Andreas fault.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It flows downhill for miles and miles until it reaches your tap. On its way, it passes towering fir forests, distinctive grasslands, and the habitat of many rare and endangered species. It's San Francisco's water, resting on the San Andreas fault, replenished constantly by the cycles of nature, and delivered to you via ingenious Civil War-era engineering.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The history and nature surrounding the San Francisco Peninsula Watershed make it much more than a pastiche of hillsides and reservoirs. The watershed, managed by the Public Utilities Commission, is home to trails that offer access to remote wilderness, Northern California geology, and unique opportunities to appreciate the complexity of providing 2.4 million people with a clean water supply.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some trails follow the outlines of reservoirs; others lead to hillside hikes that provide wide-angle views of the watershed. The Sawyer Camp trail, one of the most heavily used in the Bay Area, skirts the edges of Crystal Springs and San Andreas reservoirs, via a six-mile accessible paved path. At the northern edge of PUC land is the Sweeny Ridge trail, managed by the national park service, a 600-foot climb to sweeping views and a favorite with mountain bikers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Visiting the two areas we've explored here on the QUEST website lends a dual understanding of the watershed and its simultaneous protection from and integration into the surrounding metro area. The Fifield-Cahill Ridge trail, in a carefully preserved area that includes old growth Douglas firs, demonstrates differing views of conservation measures taken over 15 decades. On the other side of interstate 280, a hike starting from the Pulgas Water Temple gives visitors a chance to ponder the enormity of the task of bringing water halfway across the state, downhill through the mountains, to a growing Bay Area population.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Fifield-Cahill Ridge Trail\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003cimg src=\"http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2569/3750665226_f3abefef74.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\">\u003c/span> A stand of Monterey pines along the Fifiled-Cahill Ridge trail serve as a reminder of past conservation ethics, when ecologists deemed tree-planting as a most vital activity. Though they are from the nearby Monterey Bay region, these trees aren’t native to these more northern hills. They were likely planted in the 1930s, possibly to promote fog drip in the hopes that it would contribute to the reservoirs. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Running a 10-mile length through the area's many habitats, the Fifield-Cahill trail may be the watershed's most special excursion. It was closed to the public until 2003, and even now only parties of 20 or less are allowed, and must be accompanied by a trail guide. Why? It's all in the interest of preserving the habitat and resources here, and protecting the reservoirs from fire, erosion, and pollution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can make reservations to explore the trail on foot, bicycle or horse by visiting \u003ca href=\"http://trail.sfwater.org\">trail.sfwater.org.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Along the trail, hikers get views of all four of the watershed's reservoirs, as well as a vista of the city, old-growth forests, and a chance to glimpse some rare and endangered species. These reservoirs were the impetus for establishing a protected wilderness here 150 years ago, and they've been vital to the development of San Francisco. Their dams were all built between 1860 and 1880, and survived the 1906 earthquake, despite their locations along the San Andreas fault line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The landscape here is perfect for catching rainfall. Coastal marine layers move on shore over the hillsides, dumping lots of rain into the rift valley. The area around Pilarcitos reservoir can sometimes receive four or five times the rainfall of the airport, which is only 5 miles away. On their own, the four reservoirs—Upper and Lower Crystal Springs, Pilarcitos, and San Andreas—provides about ten percent of San Francisco's water supply.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Pulgas Water Temple and Sheep Camp trail\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003cimg src=\"http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2605/4231850301_4fb21704e0.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\">\u003c/span> The Pulgas Water Temple was built at the terminus of the Hetch Hetchy aqueduct as a monument to the new water system. It’s located within the watershed, just south of Crystal Springs reservoir.

The effort expended was enormous: $45 million dollars, twenty years of construction, a few deaths and a great deal of politics. In 1934, the first rush of Hetch Hetchy water flowed through the gravity-driven tunnel system, across the California's central valley.

The dam, made of interlocking concrete blocks, survived the 1906 earthquake with little damage. The four reservoirs of the Peninsula Watershed are in the valley created by the San Andreas fault.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It flows downhill for miles and miles until it reaches your tap. On its way, it passes towering fir forests, distinctive grasslands, and the habitat of many rare and endangered species. It's San Francisco's water, resting on the San Andreas fault, replenished constantly by the cycles of nature, and delivered to you via ingenious Civil War-era engineering.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The history and nature surrounding the San Francisco Peninsula Watershed make it much more than a pastiche of hillsides and reservoirs. The watershed, managed by the Public Utilities Commission, is home to trails that offer access to remote wilderness, Northern California geology, and unique opportunities to appreciate the complexity of providing 2.4 million people with a clean water supply.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some trails follow the outlines of reservoirs; others lead to hillside hikes that provide wide-angle views of the watershed. The Sawyer Camp trail, one of the most heavily used in the Bay Area, skirts the edges of Crystal Springs and San Andreas reservoirs, via a six-mile accessible paved path. At the northern edge of PUC land is the Sweeny Ridge trail, managed by the national park service, a 600-foot climb to sweeping views and a favorite with mountain bikers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Visiting the two areas we've explored here on the QUEST website lends a dual understanding of the watershed and its simultaneous protection from and integration into the surrounding metro area. The Fifield-Cahill Ridge trail, in a carefully preserved area that includes old growth Douglas firs, demonstrates differing views of conservation measures taken over 15 decades. On the other side of interstate 280, a hike starting from the Pulgas Water Temple gives visitors a chance to ponder the enormity of the task of bringing water halfway across the state, downhill through the mountains, to a growing Bay Area population.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Fifield-Cahill Ridge Trail\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003cimg src=\"http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2569/3750665226_f3abefef74.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\">\u003c/span> A stand of Monterey pines along the Fifiled-Cahill Ridge trail serve as a reminder of past conservation ethics, when ecologists deemed tree-planting as a most vital activity. Though they are from the nearby Monterey Bay region, these trees aren’t native to these more northern hills. They were likely planted in the 1930s, possibly to promote fog drip in the hopes that it would contribute to the reservoirs. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Running a 10-mile length through the area's many habitats, the Fifield-Cahill trail may be the watershed's most special excursion. It was closed to the public until 2003, and even now only parties of 20 or less are allowed, and must be accompanied by a trail guide. Why? It's all in the interest of preserving the habitat and resources here, and protecting the reservoirs from fire, erosion, and pollution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can make reservations to explore the trail on foot, bicycle or horse by visiting \u003ca href=\"http://trail.sfwater.org\">trail.sfwater.org.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Along the trail, hikers get views of all four of the watershed's reservoirs, as well as a vista of the city, old-growth forests, and a chance to glimpse some rare and endangered species. These reservoirs were the impetus for establishing a protected wilderness here 150 years ago, and they've been vital to the development of San Francisco. Their dams were all built between 1860 and 1880, and survived the 1906 earthquake, despite their locations along the San Andreas fault line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The landscape here is perfect for catching rainfall. Coastal marine layers move on shore over the hillsides, dumping lots of rain into the rift valley. The area around Pilarcitos reservoir can sometimes receive four or five times the rainfall of the airport, which is only 5 miles away. On their own, the four reservoirs—Upper and Lower Crystal Springs, Pilarcitos, and San Andreas—provides about ten percent of San Francisco's water supply.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>The Pulgas Water Temple and Sheep Camp trail\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan class=\"right\">\u003cimg src=\"http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2605/4231850301_4fb21704e0.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\">\u003c/span> The Pulgas Water Temple was built at the terminus of the Hetch Hetchy aqueduct as a monument to the new water system.
