RIVERBANK, California -- The Army turned over 28 undeveloped acres to the city at an Oct. 17 ceremony.
The land was formerly property of the Riverbank Army Ammunition Plant, which closed in 2010 under the 2005 Base Realignment and Closure Act.
Paul Cramer, Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army for Installations, presided over the event and joined Congressman Jeff Denham in speaking at the ceremony.
Riverbank Mayor Richard O’Brien and Brenda Johnson-Turner, Director of Real Estate for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, signed the memorandum of agreement that transferred the land to the city. The agreement formally drops responsibility of the 28 acres from the Presidio of Monterey.

Environmentalist, retired software engineer and musician, Hart Pearson "Sebastian" Cunningham has achieved the impressive feat of planting 45 million trees over 40 years. He aims to reach a trillion trees in his lifetime.
August 19, 2021 / / —
Hart Cunningham is on a mission to plant one trillion trees. In just four decades, he has participated in planting more than 45 million and is now committed to reaching his goal. The environmentalist and musician wants to spend the next 40 years turning 45 million into a trillion.
Hart Pearson "Sebastian" Cunningham was raised by artists seeking a life that reflected well on Mother Earth. Hart's quest to plant a trillion trees began at age 3 in Dominica with local vegetation. At age 5, then living in Nova Scotia, he continued his passion for trees with an apple orchard. By the time Hart was 16, he had planted 740 trees, having joined his Buckley High School Classes of '93 - '95 (152 students in total across three years, including Rashida Jones) to spend 14 weeks planting trees on weekends across California.
Hart spent three terms at The Michael G. Foster School of Business at the University of Washington in Seattle. There, he wrote his thesis on "Economics Related to Humanity and Environment" at age 21, continuing his interest in and passion for nature and the environment. He returned to California to finish his Master's in Economics from Claremont Graduate University. He was the youngest recorded to achieve this feat at age 22.
Hart's tree planting increased as his monetary resources grew, and he became the only Ernst and Young three-times 'Entrepreneur of the Year' Finalist. He has continued to strive to plant as many trees as possible throughout adulthood. In total, Hart has funded 19 drone or aerial-focused seed pods, increasing his count to 45 million trees planted in 40 years of service to Mother Earth.
Hart retired from software architecture at age 38. Since taking early retirement, he has run for POTUS (Hart2020) at age 42, with a campaign focused on solving climate change and income inequality globally. Hart is now concentrating on spending the next four decades aiming to reach his lifetime goal of planting a trillion trees. With more time and freedom to dedicate himself to this goal, he is determined to do even more to save and support the environment. More personally, he is also invested in his physical health and wellbeing with a focus on contortion.
Hart can be found on Instagram at @RydermanM, where he shares his thoughts and adventures in physicality, spirituality, travel, and more, as well as demonstrating the benefits of connecting with nature. Hart also spends his time empowering music lovers globally, as musician Ryderman. His music can be found on Spotify and Apple Music. His song 'Stay' has been streamed more than one million times on Spotify.

A small section of an oxbow lake that was here when Europeans arrived. By accidents of nature and luck it survived to the present day and efforts are being made to turn it into a public park. Before the 1920s the Buffalo River regularly flooded and damaged nearby housing. The Army Corps of Engineers built a series of dams to break up the ice. Suburban development has also required ever increasing hardening and engineering to protect the few people whose homes are too close in the flood plains of the river. Anyway, at the time they built up a reinforced berm to keep the river from jumping its bounds. These decisions were terribly, and irrevocably damaging to the ecosystem of this area. Fish no longer come up stream naturally and the river doesn't flood and recede like it is supposed to. It flows too fast and doesn't dissipate energy as rivers do and it sends the erosion and flooding downstream....and more engineering downstream as well. Anyway the berm protected the oxbow lake which was apparently used as an irrigation pond for the nearby farms and greenhouses. Recently it has been neglected and beavers moved in and clogged the drains and It has now become a wetland, and a prime space for migrating birds and animals.
A few years back I worked with Buffalo-Niagara Riverkeeper and we removed the Japanese knotweed and Mugwort which had taken over the open areas. We planted trees and native aquatic plants and encouraged the growth of milkweeds to attract Butterflies. Eventually it is hoped that the trees will shade out these noxious invasives...but they will require nurturing for years to come.
This is a photo of my grandad (the one in the middle) at his daily work, he was an early telephone engineer and I remember my mum telling me he used to clim up the wooden telegraph poles. I think you can see the evidence of his job in and around the barrow - the wire, the long ladders and I think some transmitters of sorts on the ground. c 1940s/1950s

An epic trip - 6-hours, 30-miles from Ouray to Lake City, Colorado - with rough rocky patches, switchbacks, shelf roads, and sweeping vistas all the way, reaching almost 13,000 feet at the summit. A Jeep Badge of Honor trail for good reason.
From TrailsOffroad.com: In the late 1800’s, miners started digging for gold, silver, lead and other ore in the San Juan Mountains. They needed a way to get people and the ore out to the nearby towns. Those roads left by the long-abandoned mines are now some of the most famous off-road trails in the books. Engineer Pass, a 30-mile trail, is one of them and is part of a trail now known as the Alpine Loop.
There are multiple mine ruins to view and explore the grounds of along the way including the Hard Tack Mine and the Michael Breen Mine.
Mile after mile provides new and more amazing views of Colorado and the San Juan mountains. Oh Point and the official summit have breath-taking panoramas of the mountains.
This trail goes well above the timberline at just over 12,900’. With the altitude comes stunning views of the mountains to the north including the Uncompahgre, Coxcomb, Wetterhorn and Wildhorse mountain peaks. The view is so expansive at Oh Point that on a very clear day, you might be able to see all the way to Utah if you turn your eyes to the west.
