Preserve Calavera’s Diane Nygaard is guiding this tour through the valley with stories and information about the area and wildlife. It’s an easy walk that can be enjoyed by all. After the tour, guests will be invited up to the historic Marron-Hayes adobe and treated to a trip back in time as Shelley Hayes Caron, a Marron descendant, tells the history of the area, the family, and the adobe, which was built circa 1839.
