The Remarkable Farallones!
Check out this find, a 1978 episode of Mutual of Ohama's Wild Kingdom (featuring narration by the legendary Marlon Perkins) that was shot on the Farallones. "The Remarkable Farallones" features Point Reyes Bird Observatory Farallon Biologists Harriet Huber and Steve Morrell - Along with Patrol skipper Charlie Merrill and his boat Cimba - and shows great footage from the islands from almost 40 years ago. And its so amazingly 70's, the wool sweater later in the piece is worth the price of admission. Enjoy!
