Fairmount Marsh



The railroad around the south end of Discovery Bay headed right across the spit in front of this little pocket marsh. The original inlet at the distal (southwestern) end of the spit was blocked and a pipe or tidegate installed. Now the railroad is gone and there's an opportunity to exhume the spit and reconnect the salt marsh to the bay.
