Background
This spirit was born of the waters which flooded this valley from the Pacific Ocean, which the Bay considers its parent and patron. It has a long history and close ties to the Santa Cruz Mountains and Grandfather Fog in addition to the spirits of the rivers which feed it and the many spirits of nature that call it home. It has suffered at the filling of its swamps, pollution of its waters, and abuse of its resident animals, plants, fish, and birds.
