Moss Landing – California’s Golden Coast (106)

Huell sets off from Moss Landing in the middle of Monterey Bay and discovers Elkhorn Slough. It’s an ecological treasure, providing habitat for rare plants, animals, and nearly 300 species of birds. The slough harbors the largest tract of tidal salt marsh in California outside of San Francisco Bay, and its watershed includes dunes, coastal marsh, oak woodlands, and unique maritime chaparral.
