Description
Save Mount Diablo…
… is a Bay Area grassroots non-profit organization made up of hikers, bikers, equestrians, mountain lovers, bird watchers, and people who just like to look at the mountain.
SMD’s mission is to preserve Mount Diablo's peaks and surrounding foothills, through land acquisition and preservation strategies to: protect the mountain's natural beauty, integrity, and biological diversity; enhance our area's quality of life; and provide recreational opportunities consistent with protection of natural resources. We also build trails and restore habitat and species.
Founded by Mary Bowerman and Art Bonwell in 1971, SMD has been instrumental in increasing open space on and around Mount Diablo from 6,788 acres to almost 90,000 acres today, and from one park to twenty-nine parks and preserves at present..
