It’s this town at the end of Richardson Bay. You know, there’s San Francisco Bay and then there’s Richardson Bay. And this is the very end of it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Ezra David Romero is a climate reporter for KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>It’s a more affluent community, just like Marin County is. And it’s a beautiful place. It’s like kind of this like little mountain valley next to the bay. It’s quite cute. And they have a cute downtown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>And I know you went to a public school there. Can you tell me what what school you went to exactly, And what did it look like when you arrived?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Yeah, I went to Mill Valley Middle School. It’s this school literally, like ten, 15, 20ft away from the bay itself. It’s quite beautiful, right? There’s Mt. Tam in the distance. There’s the bay right there. There’s a cute little park in front of the school. It kind of looks just like a regular school to me, right? But just in this serene location right next to the bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Miranda O’Connell: \u003c/strong>Is it? And I think. Yeah. Miranda, Pleasure for having.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Me. I met up with Juliette Hart and Miranda O’Connell. They both have sixth graders going to the school and both had kids who left the school recently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Miranda O’Connell: \u003c/strong>So this is in addition to kind of the bike path and the safe routes to school, the community center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>We met up at the school because they are quite concerned about this school district wanting to rebuild that school right in the same place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>You went to this school because of your sort of broader reporting on sea level rise. But what exactly is happening at Mill Valley Middle School when it comes to sea level rise and how is it affecting people there? Now, what did Miranda and Juliet tell you about that?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Well, this is a place that floods, you know, when we have high tides or extremely high tides because it’s so close to the bay. So basically, the school has a creek that runs on one side. There’s a little marsh, and then there’s like some human made channels. So when there’s a high tide, that water comes up and like floods the road that the one road in and out of campus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Miranda O’Connell: \u003c/strong>Yeah. So the main drop off area is in one of the spots that routinely gets flooded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Miranda showed me the outside of Mill Valley Middle School where it floods. There’s basically one road in and out of campus that ends kind of in this cul de sac. She basically said that, like this area floods multiple times a year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Miranda O’Connell: \u003c/strong>And so it just causes a huge safety mass because there’s you can’t drop off the kids there. And so they end up kind of jumping out at random spots on a very busy road.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>You know, it creates this like traffic chaos and a quite difficult way to just start your day when you just want to drop off your kids and get to work. And so they’re worried that the school, because the school wants to rebuild there, that they’re just going to put kids in danger in the future and then they’re not actually fixing the problem. There’s been this long debate over whether the school should be rebuilt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>So, I mean, it sounds like the threat of sea level rise is very present for parents and families at Mill Valley Middle. But how does this problem go beyond Mill Valley, this problem of sea level rise affecting schools in the Bay Area specifically?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>So this school is like a case example of all the schools around the Bay Area where this could happen. We have 400 plus miles of shoreline. There’s many, many schools in that area. We’ve only had about like eight inches of sea level rise since the industrial revolution. And that’s supposed to speed up as human caused climate change exacerbates and seas rise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>We found that 52 schools around the Bay Area already are at risk of flooding from sea level rise. Whether that’s like groundwater being pushed up or like water actually coming over the shores like we see here at Mill Valley. And that just gets worse as it goes into the future. I linked up with this group called Climate Central. They’re a non advocacy news group.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>They have a data journalist named Katie Worth, and we worked on this together. We looked at USGS data around where groundwater is and how it’s going to rise in different places. And then we basically superimposed all that information onto a map. And then we saw all the schools that were at risk. And so what we found, though, is that there’s 52 schools already at risk of groundwater floods linked to sea level rise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>And seven of them also carry the risk of coastal floods, compounding the likelihood that they could be inundated. And by 2050, 16 will have both risks. And the bulk of these schools are pretty much in San Mateo, Alameda and Marin counties, you know, all low lying places, places where there’s like fill. That’s where we like filled in part of the bay. And some of it’s like actually below sea level or just right above it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Yeah. And so and you’re talking not just about the threat of the bay sort of rising, but also groundwater rising as well. Right. Can you talk about that and kind of explain what experts say about that?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>So when we think about sea level rise, we’re often thinking about like, say, the Marshall Islands or somewhere out in the water where the actual ocean. Right. Is like covering land, Right. But groundwater is a phenomenon that scientists are talking about right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>For the past like five, ten years, that could happen before we see so much water coming over the shore. When you think of the ocean or the bay, you know that water is above ground. Right. But it also saturates the ground underneath the land. So what happens is the seas rise. That water also rises in that ground, that saturated soil.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>And we also have groundwater in there, right? Like natural groundwater, shallow groundwater. And so the idea is as seas rise, it can push that groundwater up, become more saturated and eventually become emergent or right flooding inland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>I know you also talked with some experts for this story. What do experts say about how they see the threat of sea level rise potentially impacting schools?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Kevin Befus: \u003c/strong>Schools haven’t dealt with this issue before.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>I talked to Kevin Befus a lot about this. You know, he’s an assistant professor at the University of Arkansas Department of Geosciences, and he studied the hydrology of the Bay Area lot, specifically for USGS, creating the maps that we used for our story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Kevin Befus: \u003c/strong>Do you get a storm, a 20 year storm, So it has a 5% chance of happening in any given year. A 5% chance storm in a year could make the school an island almost.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>When I talked to Kevin about how schools are going to be impacted by this, he thought about like high water days, kind of like foggy day schedules or snow days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Kevin Befus: \u003c/strong>Those sort of events, I think will become more and more common for these schools along the coast. The administrators will have to be keeping track of tides, the king tides and the size of storms coming through and be ready to to have a high water day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>He sees this as an imminent threat to schools, to businesses, to highways all around the Bay Area, because as seas rise. Right, it’s going to affect everything around that lap of the bay. For example, at Mill Valley, they want to raise the school five feet above the 100 year storm level where it can be put in flood really bad. But he is saying like the school can raise it. But what about everything around it, like the roads, the community?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Kevin Befus: \u003c/strong>I think the cost will be astronomical no matter what. A lot of this happens so slowly that I think that’s why people don’t necessarily think of that right away. It’s not on the front of their mind until it’s their house. It’s their car. It’s their school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Coming up, the plan to rebuild Mill Valley Middle School. Stay with us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>I want to come back, Ezra, to where we started in this story. Mill Valley. You already described the threat of sea level rise being imminent for parents and the students at that school. So what exactly is being done to address that?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Yeah, well, the community in Mill Valley voted on a bond measure called Measure G back in 2022, and it was for like $194 million to modernize and beautify schools in Mill Valley. So the school district decided they wanted to use a portion of that money. $130 million would go to rebuilding Mill Valley Middle School.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sharon Nakatani: \u003c/strong>It’s very, very expensive, too. So we are taking it very seriously. We are a medical share.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>I met up with Sharon Nakatania. She’s the board president for the Mill Valley School District.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sharon Nakatani: \u003c/strong>And this is our, you know, it’s a really large library, actually, for a middle school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>We are we toured the campus and, you know, she showed me the area that floods. We thought we had like the cool library they have. And she talked about their plans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sharon Nakatani: \u003c/strong>Now we have deemed the school is has reached its age and it will be demolished and rebuilt in the same spot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>What they want to do is they want to raise that school about five feet above the 100 year storm. That’s basically like a historic big storm, you know, that could flood the area. So they believe that they’re raising the school out of the risk from future sea level rise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sharon Nakatani: \u003c/strong>I think there’s a plan to for what we can demolish from this building. We will use this film to to raise the site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Sharon told me that, like, you know, there are other sites, but there’s like an existing school there. So they’d have to like, figure out what to do with this elementary school. And then there could be uproar from parents about like, you’re moving our kids. And so they felt like this site is still the best site even with future sea level rise because point blank, they just didn’t feel like they had the land and or the money to like go buy some new land and also have the money to rebuild this school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sharon Nakatani: \u003c/strong>To do a new middle school in Mill Valley. Again, 10 to 12 acres. So there’s no available flat land. That’s 10 to 12 acres. There might be hills that are really accessible. But when you look at the larger picture of Mill Valley, this school is really right in the middle, which is why.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>So when I asked her about, you know, what about the road that that currently floods or, you know, the community around it. Her answer was like, it’s not in the school’s purview.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sharon Nakatani: \u003c/strong>The sea level rise is everyone’s issue, frankly, and it’s up to us to do what we can for our school and our students. And it’s also up to the city to do what we can for the residents and for the county Marin to do and say to California, etc., etc..\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>But I know it’s very contentious among parents. Right. What do you what do they say about the decision to build on this same spot? And what are the parents you spoke with want to see instead?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Yeah, the parents I spoke to, you know, Juliet and Miranda, they were quite angry that this school district still wants to build on this site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Miranda O’Connell: \u003c/strong>These are long lived assets that we built. So why are we building something that we know in 20 years will be vulnerable, will be have standing water surrounding it? Why aren’t we thinking about places that don’t have that risk?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>So a few months ago when I interviewed Miranda, you know, she had an eighth grader at the school and she was just quite tired of seeing the flooding happening. Right. She was living through it multiple times a year. And so she was really worried about the future. Right. She has another sixth grader coming into the campus this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Miranda O’Connell: \u003c/strong>So I have one that’s leaving and then I have one that’s starting this coming school year for the three year period and another one starting in two years for an additional three year period. Yeah, you’re.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Going to deal with this for a while.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Miranda O’Connell: \u003c/strong>For the next six years. Yeah.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>She was worried about like the kids having to be at the school as they rebuild this site and into the future as as. CS Right. So she had like concerns about right now and into the future. And when I interviewed Juliet Harte the same day, you know, she has a sixth grader coming into the school. Her concern was really about sea level rise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Miranda O’Connell: \u003c/strong>I look at this site and think sea level rise because that’s what I do. But it’s not surprising to me that people haven’t thought of that. What’s surprising to me is that now that they know they’re still moving forward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Professionally, she’s actually like an oceanographer, so she knows how much sea level rise is going to impact the school. She knows how many feet and by what year and what time. So she was just really worried about the future because, you know, when you think about climate change all day and what’s it going to do to the Bay Area, then your kids go to a school right next to the bay. I mean, I think those two things coincide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Right? And her her sixth grader who’s starting there this year is going to have a couple more years at that school. So, I mean, it sounds like these parents basically want the district to find somewhere else to rebuild.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Yeah, they want the school district or build the school somewhere else. But the school district, when I talked to Sharon Nakatani, she basically said it’s a done deal. Like this is where we’re rebuilding the school. We’ve look, we’ve exhausted all of our other options. We’ve been in many meetings about this, but I think the last thing that’s might determine what happens there is in this environmental review.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>So, you know, every building project, you know, in in the state has to go through environmental review when you know, when it’s in the process and that they look at everything from like sea level rise to flooding to storms to what’s a site like? What’s the hydrology there? One also caveat about this site. It’s on an old city dump site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>So like under the school, it’s a bunch of dump material, trash and stuff like that. The school measures how much methane is coming off of that site every day. So they’re paying attention to that. So there’s a lot of concerns at this site. I’m not sure where it’ll go from here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>I could see and I think the parents are really hoping that, you know, this environmental review that like state regulators will really think about this site, especially when it comes to the dump. There’s a lot of factors here that are going on. And I think it’ll just we’ll see what’s going to happen in the next couple of months or maybe a year or so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>When we’re talking about these schools, right. That are built to last 50 years, what should be done in order to really address and and adapt to. The threat of sea level rise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>A lot of my reporting, we look at like an individual cases like this in Mill Valley. But really solutions for sea level rise are regional, right? Or citywide, Right. Like in San Francisco, we’re thinking about a whole waterfront sea level rise plan for seven and a half miles of the of the bay. And then there’s other plans for other areas, Right?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>It’s like this huge thing. So something for Mill Valley or another part of the bay. They need to think about this regionally. Well, when it comes to schools, they can do whatever is in their purview, like how much money they have and they can raise the school. But, you know, not all schools have that luxury, right?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>It costs a lot of money to build a school or in this case, they’re going to spend $130 million to rebuild this school, which is a lot of money. Right. For especially for community that doesn’t have that kind of funds or maybe isn’t in an affluent area where they can pass a bond measure to do that. And Kevin Befus from the University of Arkansas talked about that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Kevin Befus: \u003c/strong>It ends up being for those who can afford to protect themselves well, and those who can’t, you know, end up with the extra water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>I mean, I think what our reporting does right, we’re like we lay out what schools are at risk. Right? We found these 52 schools. There’s of each has a varying level of risk. But when you think of a school, they’re really like a community center, right. If this school is in danger from sea features, sea level rise or current sea level rise or current flooding, then the entire community or large portions of it might be. In some way. Our analysis is like a red flag for these communities to pay attention about what’s to come.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Ezra, thank you so much.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Hey, thanks for having me.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>That was Ezra David Romero, a climate reporter for KQED.

Today we go to one school in Mill Valley that’s already feeling the impact of sea level rise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>I went to Mill Valley in Marin County. It’s this town at the end of Richardson Bay. You know, there’s San Francisco Bay and then there’s Richardson Bay. And this is the very end of it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Ezra David Romero is a climate reporter for KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>It’s a more affluent community, just like Marin County is. And it’s a beautiful place. It’s like kind of this like little mountain valley next to the bay. It’s quite cute. And they have a cute downtown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>And I know you went to a public school there. Can you tell me what what school you went to exactly, And what did it look like when you arrived?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Yeah, I went to Mill Valley Middle School. It’s this school literally, like ten, 15, 20ft away from the bay itself. It’s quite beautiful, right? There’s Mt. Tam in the distance. There’s the bay right there. There’s a cute little park in front of the school. It kind of looks just like a regular school to me, right? But just in this serene location right next to the bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Miranda O’Connell: \u003c/strong>Is it? And I think. Yeah. Miranda, Pleasure for having.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Me. I met up with Juliette Hart and Miranda O’Connell. They both have sixth graders going to the school and both had kids who left the school recently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Miranda O’Connell: \u003c/strong>So this is in addition to kind of the bike path and the safe routes to school, the community center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>We met up at the school because they are quite concerned about this school district wanting to rebuild that school right in the same place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>You went to this school because of your sort of broader reporting on sea level rise. But what exactly is happening at Mill Valley Middle School when it comes to sea level rise and how is it affecting people there? Now, what did Miranda and Juliet tell you about that?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Well, this is a place that floods, you know, when we have high tides or extremely high tides because it’s so close to the bay. So basically, the school has a creek that runs on one side. There’s a little marsh, and then there’s like some human made channels. So when there’s a high tide, that water comes up and like floods the road that the one road in and out of campus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Miranda O’Connell: \u003c/strong>Yeah. So the main drop off area is in one of the spots that routinely gets flooded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Miranda showed me the outside of Mill Valley Middle School where it floods. There’s basically one road in and out of campus that ends kind of in this cul de sac. She basically said that, like this area floods multiple times a year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Miranda O’Connell: \u003c/strong>And so it just causes a huge safety mass because there’s you can’t drop off the kids there. And so they end up kind of jumping out at random spots on a very busy road.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>You know, it creates this like traffic chaos and a quite difficult way to just start your day when you just want to drop off your kids and get to work. And so they’re worried that the school, because the school wants to rebuild there, that they’re just going to put kids in danger in the future and then they’re not actually fixing the problem. There’s been this long debate over whether the school should be rebuilt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>So, I mean, it sounds like the threat of sea level rise is very present for parents and families at Mill Valley Middle. But how does this problem go beyond Mill Valley, this problem of sea level rise affecting schools in the Bay Area specifically?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>So this school is like a case example of all the schools around the Bay Area where this could happen. We have 400 plus miles of shoreline. There’s many, many schools in that area. We’ve only had about like eight inches of sea level rise since the industrial revolution. And that’s supposed to speed up as human caused climate change exacerbates and seas rise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>We found that 52 schools around the Bay Area already are at risk of flooding from sea level rise. Whether that’s like groundwater being pushed up or like water actually coming over the shores like we see here at Mill Valley. And that just gets worse as it goes into the future. I linked up with this group called Climate Central. They’re a non advocacy news group.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>They have a data journalist named Katie Worth, and we worked on this together. We looked at USGS data around where groundwater is and how it’s going to rise in different places. And then we basically superimposed all that information onto a map. And then we saw all the schools that were at risk. And so what we found, though, is that there’s 52 schools already at risk of groundwater floods linked to sea level rise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>And seven of them also carry the risk of coastal floods, compounding the likelihood that they could be inundated. And by 2050, 16 will have both risks. And the bulk of these schools are pretty much in San Mateo, Alameda and Marin counties, you know, all low lying places, places where there’s like fill. That’s where we like filled in part of the bay. And some of it’s like actually below sea level or just right above it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Yeah. And so and you’re talking not just about the threat of the bay sort of rising, but also groundwater rising as well. Right. Can you talk about that and kind of explain what experts say about that?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>So when we think about sea level rise, we’re often thinking about like, say, the Marshall Islands or somewhere out in the water where the actual ocean. Right. Is like covering land, Right. But groundwater is a phenomenon that scientists are talking about right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>For the past like five, ten years, that could happen before we see so much water coming over the shore. When you think of the ocean or the bay, you know that water is above ground. Right. But it also saturates the ground underneath the land. So what happens is the seas rise. That water also rises in that ground, that saturated soil.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>And we also have groundwater in there, right? Like natural groundwater, shallow groundwater. And so the idea is as seas rise, it can push that groundwater up, become more saturated and eventually become emergent or right flooding inland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>I know you also talked with some experts for this story. What do experts say about how they see the threat of sea level rise potentially impacting schools?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Kevin Befus: \u003c/strong>Schools haven’t dealt with this issue before.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>I talked to Kevin Befus a lot about this. You know, he’s an assistant professor at the University of Arkansas Department of Geosciences, and he studied the hydrology of the Bay Area lot, specifically for USGS, creating the maps that we used for our story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Kevin Befus: \u003c/strong>Do you get a storm, a 20 year storm, So it has a 5% chance of happening in any given year. A 5% chance storm in a year could make the school an island almost.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>When I talked to Kevin about how schools are going to be impacted by this, he thought about like high water days, kind of like foggy day schedules or snow days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Kevin Befus: \u003c/strong>Those sort of events, I think will become more and more common for these schools along the coast. The administrators will have to be keeping track of tides, the king tides and the size of storms coming through and be ready to to have a high water day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>He sees this as an imminent threat to schools, to businesses, to highways all around the Bay Area, because as seas rise. Right, it’s going to affect everything around that lap of the bay. For example, at Mill Valley, they want to raise the school five feet above the 100 year storm level where it can be put in flood really bad. But he is saying like the school can raise it. But what about everything around it, like the roads, the community?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Kevin Befus: \u003c/strong>I think the cost will be astronomical no matter what. A lot of this happens so slowly that I think that’s why people don’t necessarily think of that right away. It’s not on the front of their mind until it’s their house. It’s their car. It’s their school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Coming up, the plan to rebuild Mill Valley Middle School. Stay with us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>I want to come back, Ezra, to where we started in this story. Mill Valley. You already described the threat of sea level rise being imminent for parents and the students at that school. So what exactly is being done to address that?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Yeah, well, the community in Mill Valley voted on a bond measure called Measure G back in 2022, and it was for like $194 million to modernize and beautify schools in Mill Valley. So the school district decided they wanted to use a portion of that money. $130 million would go to rebuilding Mill Valley Middle School.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sharon Nakatani: \u003c/strong>It’s very, very expensive, too. So we are taking it very seriously. We are a medical share.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>I met up with Sharon Nakatania. She’s the board president for the Mill Valley School District.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sharon Nakatani: \u003c/strong>And this is our, you know, it’s a really large library, actually, for a middle school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>We are we toured the campus and, you know, she showed me the area that floods. We thought we had like the cool library they have. And she talked about their plans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sharon Nakatani: \u003c/strong>Now we have deemed the school is has reached its age and it will be demolished and rebuilt in the same spot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>What they want to do is they want to raise that school about five feet above the 100 year storm. That’s basically like a historic big storm, you know, that could flood the area. So they believe that they’re raising the school out of the risk from future sea level rise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sharon Nakatani: \u003c/strong>I think there’s a plan to for what we can demolish from this building. We will use this film to to raise the site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Sharon told me that, like, you know, there are other sites, but there’s like an existing school there. So they’d have to like, figure out what to do with this elementary school. And then there could be uproar from parents about like, you’re moving our kids. And so they felt like this site is still the best site even with future sea level rise because point blank, they just didn’t feel like they had the land and or the money to like go buy some new land and also have the money to rebuild this school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sharon Nakatani: \u003c/strong>To do a new middle school in Mill Valley. Again, 10 to 12 acres. So there’s no available flat land. That’s 10 to 12 acres. There might be hills that are really accessible. But when you look at the larger picture of Mill Valley, this school is really right in the middle, which is why.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>So when I asked her about, you know, what about the road that that currently floods or, you know, the community around it. Her answer was like, it’s not in the school’s purview.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sharon Nakatani: \u003c/strong>The sea level rise is everyone’s issue, frankly, and it’s up to us to do what we can for our school and our students. And it’s also up to the city to do what we can for the residents and for the county Marin to do and say to California, etc., etc..\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>But I know it’s very contentious among parents. Right. What do you what do they say about the decision to build on this same spot? And what are the parents you spoke with want to see instead?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Yeah, the parents I spoke to, you know, Juliet and Miranda, they were quite angry that this school district still wants to build on this site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Miranda O’Connell: \u003c/strong>These are long lived assets that we built. So why are we building something that we know in 20 years will be vulnerable, will be have standing water surrounding it? Why aren’t we thinking about places that don’t have that risk?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>So a few months ago when I interviewed Miranda, you know, she had an eighth grader at the school and she was just quite tired of seeing the flooding happening. Right. She was living through it multiple times a year. And so she was really worried about the future. Right. She has another sixth grader coming into the campus this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Miranda O’Connell: \u003c/strong>So I have one that’s leaving and then I have one that’s starting this coming school year for the three year period and another one starting in two years for an additional three year period. Yeah, you’re.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Going to deal with this for a while.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Miranda O’Connell: \u003c/strong>For the next six years. Yeah.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>She was worried about like the kids having to be at the school as they rebuild this site and into the future as as. CS Right. So she had like concerns about right now and into the future. And when I interviewed Juliet Harte the same day, you know, she has a sixth grader coming into the school. Her concern was really about sea level rise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Miranda O’Connell: \u003c/strong>I look at this site and think sea level rise because that’s what I do. But it’s not surprising to me that people haven’t thought of that. What’s surprising to me is that now that they know they’re still moving forward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Professionally, she’s actually like an oceanographer, so she knows how much sea level rise is going to impact the school. She knows how many feet and by what year and what time. So she was just really worried about the future because, you know, when you think about climate change all day and what’s it going to do to the Bay Area, then your kids go to a school right next to the bay. I mean, I think those two things coincide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Right? And her her sixth grader who’s starting there this year is going to have a couple more years at that school. So, I mean, it sounds like these parents basically want the district to find somewhere else to rebuild.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Yeah, they want the school district or build the school somewhere else. But the school district, when I talked to Sharon Nakatani, she basically said it’s a done deal. Like this is where we’re rebuilding the school. We’ve look, we’ve exhausted all of our other options. We’ve been in many meetings about this, but I think the last thing that’s might determine what happens there is in this environmental review.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>So, you know, every building project, you know, in in the state has to go through environmental review when you know, when it’s in the process and that they look at everything from like sea level rise to flooding to storms to what’s a site like? What’s the hydrology there? One also caveat about this site. It’s on an old city dump site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>So like under the school, it’s a bunch of dump material, trash and stuff like that. The school measures how much methane is coming off of that site every day. So they’re paying attention to that. So there’s a lot of concerns at this site. I’m not sure where it’ll go from here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>I could see and I think the parents are really hoping that, you know, this environmental review that like state regulators will really think about this site, especially when it comes to the dump. There’s a lot of factors here that are going on. And I think it’ll just we’ll see what’s going to happen in the next couple of months or maybe a year or so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>When we’re talking about these schools, right. That are built to last 50 years, what should be done in order to really address and and adapt to. The threat of sea level rise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>A lot of my reporting, we look at like an individual cases like this in Mill Valley. But really solutions for sea level rise are regional, right? Or citywide, Right. Like in San Francisco, we’re thinking about a whole waterfront sea level rise plan for seven and a half miles of the of the bay. And then there’s other plans for other areas, Right?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>It’s like this huge thing. So something for Mill Valley or another part of the bay. They need to think about this regionally. Well, when it comes to schools, they can do whatever is in their purview, like how much money they have and they can raise the school. But, you know, not all schools have that luxury, right?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>It costs a lot of money to build a school or in this case, they’re going to spend $130 million to rebuild this school, which is a lot of money. Right. For especially for community that doesn’t have that kind of funds or maybe isn’t in an affluent area where they can pass a bond measure to do that. And Kevin Befus from the University of Arkansas talked about that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Kevin Befus: \u003c/strong>It ends up being for those who can afford to protect themselves well, and those who can’t, you know, end up with the extra water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>I mean, I think what our reporting does right, we’re like we lay out what schools are at risk. Right? We found these 52 schools. There’s of each has a varying level of risk. But when you think of a school, they’re really like a community center, right. If this school is in danger from sea features, sea level rise or current sea level rise or current flooding, then the entire community or large portions of it might be. In some way. Our analysis is like a red flag for these communities to pay attention about what’s to come.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Ezra, thank you so much.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ezra David Romero: \u003c/strong>Hey, thanks for having me.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>That was Ezra David Romero, a climate reporter for KQED. We’re going to leave you a link to Ezra’s story in our shownotes, which includes graphics of where schools will be impacted by sea level rise.

Authorities declared her missing after park rangers noticed her car hadn’t moved for days. Helicopters, dogs and a hundred search-and-rescue volunteers were scouring the mountain for her.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The details caught my attention. Magdalena Glinkowski had parked at the Bootjack lot, where I frequently park. She was 33, to my 35. She was blond, just like me. And she apparently enjoyed hiking alone, just like me.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As I drove through Mill Valley that day and gazed up at the mountain, glowing green in the sun, I squinted at it. An unfamiliar darkness seemed to shroud it. There could be a body up there among the creases somewhere, a body put there by something sinister. And I felt something I’d never felt about the mountain before: fear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Growing up beside her, Mount Tam became my temple. I saw the sun set behind her undulating silhouette each night. At twilight, I watched the thick coastal fog, like a soft, living thing, spill over her ridges and slide down her valleys. In high school, I parked on her ridgeline roads after dark and made out with boyfriends in cars above the twinkling lights of the Bay Area. I played hooky on the day I had to decide which college to go to and sat with a friend on the grass beside Tam’s Bon Tempe Lake, weighing pros and cons. My mom, knowing me well, later sent me a framed print of the mountain to hang on my dorm room wall.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">Fear is also a thief. It steals the present moment from us.\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp> Mount Tam is still my faithful source of both comfort and joy. Last year, while grieving and angry about something, I hiked deep into a damp redwood canyon (parked near Bootjack, in fact), sat beside a creek to meditate, and emerged bright and hopeful. On my birthday, I plopped down by an oak tree on a grassy slope high above the Pacific Ocean, ate sushi, and quietly celebrated the glory of life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just a week before Magdalena Glinkowski went missing, I went searching (again, near Bootjack) for a certain bench I’d never visited before. My worries — about discord with my boyfriend, about disappointing my editor at work, about becoming a mom before my biological clock runs out — released their grip on me and dropped off, one by one, beside the trail. When I found the bench, tucked under a bay tree before a staggering view of the whole San Francisco Bay, it bore this inscription:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>“Give me these hills and the friends I love, I ask no other heaven.”\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_133332\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 300px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/04/Matt-Davis-trail.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-133332\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/04/Matt-Davis-trail-e1398101098904-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"The author's birthday hike followed the Matt Davis Trail.

(Grace Rubenstein/KQED)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Fear is like a Pandora’s box. Once open, it’s hard to shove the frightening possibilities back inside. I imagined walking along one of my familiar paths, brush and pine trees on either side, and suddenly feeling a hand around my throat. I sensed the pounding heart, the short breath, the blinding terror of being dragged into the bushes by a strange, strong man with cold eyes. The scariest thing to imagine is, I think, the feeling of the fear itself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Had I been naive all those times I visited Mount Tam alone? Had I trusted the mountain’s beauty too much? Mistaken her goodness for that of her inhabitants? I pictured myself going hiking again now and saw myself uneasy, on alert, constantly glancing around.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fear is also a thief. It steals the present moment from us, snatches away our ability to feel that comfort and joy. And it was threatening to steal my most sacred place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I mentioned the mystery of Magdalena Glinkowski to a friend, and wondered aloud if I should make a practice of carrying pepper spray on my hikes. Although, honestly, the idea of carrying a weapon to my church sounds kind of unholy. Could I really sink into the serenity with a can of eye-burning chemicals at the ready? But could I really find serenity without one? My friend suggested a taser. She’d bought one while she was being stalked; it fit in her back pocket and she found she felt powerful when she held it. Though the stalking is now over, she keeps it by her bedside. Further proof that the fear of physical harm is — unfairly — a fundamental fact of being a woman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_133336\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 300px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/04/Railroad-Grade.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-133336\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/04/Railroad-Grade-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"A sweeping view of the bay is visible from the Old Railroad Grade, near Mesa Station.

(Grace Rubenstein/KQED)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>I managed to put the freaky images out of my head over a few days spent working in the East Bay, farther from the mountain. Until I mentioned the situation to my mom, who immediately started recounting chilling stories of the Trailside Killer. I’d been too young, a toddler, to remember when his murders terrorized the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One of them was a young woman who’d been in the Peace Corps, and she didn’t know,” my mom said. “And she decided to stop just before sunset at the Mountain Theater.” (Note: Merely half a mile from my new favorite bench.) “They found her body not far away.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That night, I anxiously looked online for any news of Magdalena. And there it was: \u003ca href=\"http://www.marinij.com/marinnews/ci_25571464/body-woman-missing-mount-tamalpais-found\">they’d found her body\u003c/a>. A trail runner who’d seen her, alive, on the day she went missing led authorities to the right area, where searchers found her down a steep slope. The sheriff reported “no obvious indication of any foul play.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, I couldn’t sleep. Pandora’s box was open. I lay in bed searching for tasers on my smartphone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Four days later, another solo female hiker went missing in the same area. Searchers \u003ca href=\"http://www.marinij.com/News/ci_25589670/Mill-Valley-woman-confirmed-as-missing\">found the body\u003c/a> of 50-year-old Marie Sanner the next day, down another steep slope. Again, no sign of foul play. She appeared to have fallen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So this could all be explained away. Mind you, though, this is the not the Rockies; accidental deaths on mellow Mount Tam are uncommon. Two in three weeks: unheard of. Official causes of death are still pending; the coroner is awaiting toxicology results for Magdalena and conducting an autopsy for Marie today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Logically, I realize that Magdalena’s and Marie’s tragic deaths probably have little to do with my safety on the mountain. And statistically, with 30-plus years between us and the last serial killer, the risk is tiny. It’s probably more dangerous to go to restaurants in parts of East Oakland that see frequent shootings, as I am wont to do. But there is a certain kind of terror in the idea of being alone in the wilderness with a man who means you harm. And once that idea gets in you, it’s hard to get it out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Naive or not, I realize that I have, at least, been choosing to be vulnerable. And I don’t want to be vulnerable anymore. I will probably hike with some kind of protection from now on, be it a taser in my back pocket or pepper spray at my waistband. I only hope I can forget I’m carrying it — that my mountain cradles me, as always, and whispers away my fear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_133401\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/04/West-Point.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/04/West-Point-640x430.jpg\" alt=\"The author watches the sun rise in front of the West Point Inn in March 2014.

An unfamiliar darkness seemed to shroud it. There could be a body up there among the creases somewhere, a body put there by something sinister. And I felt something I’d never felt about the mountain before: fear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Growing up beside her, Mount Tam became my temple. I saw the sun set behind her undulating silhouette each night. At twilight, I watched the thick coastal fog, like a soft, living thing, spill over her ridges and slide down her valleys. In high school, I parked on her ridgeline roads after dark and made out with boyfriends in cars above the twinkling lights of the Bay Area. I played hooky on the day I had to decide which college to go to and sat with a friend on the grass beside Tam’s Bon Tempe Lake, weighing pros and cons. My mom, knowing me well, later sent me a framed print of the mountain to hang on my dorm room wall.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">Fear is also a thief. It steals the present moment from us.\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp> Mount Tam is still my faithful source of both comfort and joy. Last year, while grieving and angry about something, I hiked deep into a damp redwood canyon (parked near Bootjack, in fact), sat beside a creek to meditate, and emerged bright and hopeful. On my birthday, I plopped down by an oak tree on a grassy slope high above the Pacific Ocean, ate sushi, and quietly celebrated the glory of life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

My worries — about discord with my boyfriend, about disappointing my editor at work, about becoming a mom before my biological clock runs out — released their grip on me and dropped off, one by one, beside the trail. When I found the bench, tucked under a bay tree before a staggering view of the whole San Francisco Bay, it bore this inscription:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>“Give me these hills and the friends I love, I ask no other heaven.”\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_133332\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 300px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/04/Matt-Davis-trail.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-133332\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/04/Matt-Davis-trail-e1398101098904-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"The author's birthday hike followed the Matt Davis Trail.

(Grace Rubenstein/KQED)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Fear is like a Pandora’s box. Once open, it’s hard to shove the frightening possibilities back inside. I imagined walking along one of my familiar paths, brush and pine trees on either side, and suddenly feeling a hand around my throat. I sensed the pounding heart, the short breath, the blinding terror of being dragged into the bushes by a strange, strong man with cold eyes. The scariest thing to imagine is, I think, the feeling of the fear itself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Had I been naive all those times I visited Mount Tam alone? Had I trusted the mountain’s beauty too much? Mistaken her goodness for that of her inhabitants? I pictured myself going hiking again now and saw myself uneasy, on alert, constantly glancing around.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fear is also a thief. It steals the present moment from us, snatches away our ability to feel that comfort and joy. And it was threatening to steal my most sacred place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I mentioned the mystery of Magdalena Glinkowski to a friend, and wondered aloud if I should make a practice of carrying pepper spray on my hikes. Although, honestly, the idea of carrying a weapon to my church sounds kind of unholy. Could I really sink into the serenity with a can of eye-burning chemicals at the ready? But could I really find serenity without one? My friend suggested a taser. She’d bought one while she was being stalked; it fit in her back pocket and she found she felt powerful when she held it. Though the stalking is now over, she keeps it by her bedside. Further proof that the fear of physical harm is — unfairly — a fundamental fact of being a woman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_133336\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 300px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/04/Railroad-Grade.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-133336\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/04/Railroad-Grade-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"A sweeping view of the bay is visible from the Old Railroad Grade, near Mesa Station.

(Grace Rubenstein/KQED)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>I managed to put the freaky images out of my head over a few days spent working in the East Bay, farther from the mountain. Until I mentioned the situation to my mom, who immediately started recounting chilling stories of the Trailside Killer. I’d been too young, a toddler, to remember when his murders terrorized the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One of them was a young woman who’d been in the Peace Corps, and she didn’t know,” my mom said. “And she decided to stop just before sunset at the Mountain Theater.” (Note: Merely half a mile from my new favorite bench.) “They found her body not far away.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That night, I anxiously looked online for any news of Magdalena. And there it was: \u003ca href=\"http://www.marinij.com/marinnews/ci_25571464/body-woman-missing-mount-tamalpais-found\">they’d found her body\u003c/a>. A trail runner who’d seen her, alive, on the day she went missing led authorities to the right area, where searchers found her down a steep slope. The sheriff reported “no obvious indication of any foul play.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, I couldn’t sleep. Pandora’s box was open. I lay in bed searching for tasers on my smartphone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Four days later, another solo female hiker went missing in the same area. Searchers \u003ca href=\"http://www.marinij.com/News/ci_25589670/Mill-Valley-woman-confirmed-as-missing\">found the body\u003c/a> of 50-year-old Marie Sanner the next day, down another steep slope. Again, no sign of foul play. She appeared to have fallen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So this could all be explained away. Mind you, though, this is the not the Rockies; accidental deaths on mellow Mount Tam are uncommon. Two in three weeks: unheard of. Official causes of death are still pending; the coroner is awaiting toxicology results for Magdalena and conducting an autopsy for Marie today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Logically, I realize that Magdalena’s and Marie’s tragic deaths probably have little to do with my safety on the mountain. And statistically, with 30-plus years between us and the last serial killer, the risk is tiny. It’s probably more dangerous to go to restaurants in parts of East Oakland that see frequent shootings, as I am wont to do. But there is a certain kind of terror in the idea of being alone in the wilderness with a man who means you harm. And once that idea gets in you, it’s hard to get it out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
