This DVD contains two episodes: one titled Celebrate the Legacy, which documents the history and beauty of California's state parks; and Parks for the Future, which examines the many trends that will impact California's state parks in the future, like loss of open spaces, population growth, climate change, decline of native plants and animals, and political budget pressures. The two episodes are full of great views and clips of many of California's state parks, and they have won a number of prestigious awards so far, including Best Documentary at the 2012 Yosemite Film Festival. A beautiful documentary film on California and its wonderful state park system.
