  • State Parks Along California's North Coast Natural Beauty Along the Coast
    State Parks Along California's North Coast Natural Beauty Along the Coast California State Parks along the northern California coast offer visitors a chance to enjoy spectacular beauty with rugged beaches and redwood forests. Benbow Lake State Recreation Area (HUMBOLDT COUNTY), located two miles south of Garberville on Highway 101, has more than 600 acres of forest, 32,000 square feet of water, and a half-mile of beach. It's the perfect place for hiking, swimming, fishing, sailing and horseback riding. Occupying a mile of the South Fork of the Eel River, the park has three miles of hiking trails and a campground. Canoes and paddleboats may be available for rent from a concessionaire in the park. During the summer, the park is home to Shakespeare and art festivals. For more information, call (707) 923-3238 or (707) 247-3318. As with all visits to California State Parks, it's always a good idea to call before your visit to check on conditions. Richardson Grove State Park (HUMBOLDT COUNTY), located eight miles south of Garberville on Highway 101, features a forest of towering coast redwoods along the South Fork of the Eel River. The park is one of the oldest state parks. It was acquired in the 1920s and named after the state's 25th governor, Friend W. Richardson. There are developed campsites and a visitor center, built from an old lodge. The park is popular for fishing, with winter runs of silver and king salmon. For more information, call the park at (707) 247-3318. Sinkyone Wilderness State Park (HUMBOLDT and MENDOCNIO COUNTIES)\ Access to the park from the south is 50 miles north of Fort Bragg via Highway 101 and County Road 431 to Usal Beach.

All coastal watersheds are flowing as well as high country springs, Miller Spring and Maple Spring below the summit of King Peak. Bear Hollow Spring status is currently unknown. When navigating roadways within the King Range National Conservation Area ensure appropriate vehicle safety equipment is present in automobile (including properly inflated spare tire, jack and wrench). Cellphone reception is limited throughout the King Range, an SOS emergency responder device is recommended. “Pack it in, Pack it out.” All visitors are asked to follow Leave No Trace (LNT) guidelines when recreating in the King Range Wilderness. Human waste is to be disposed of in the sand near the tide line by digging an eight-inch-deep cathole and burying it, do not bury waste in or around campsites and creeks. Toilet paper can be buried with waste or packed out. BURNING TRASH IS PROHIBITED. ALL TRASH MUST BE PACKED OUT. As of December 1st, 2020, fire prevention orders have been rescinded however visitors are asked to follow LNT guidelines when having a campfire in the wilderness area.

  • Boundary Enlargement for California Coastal National Monument
    THE WHITE HOUSE Office of the Press Secretary For Immediate Release January 12, 2017 BOUNDARY ENLARGEMENT OF THE CALIFORNIA COASTAL NATIONAL MONUMENT - - - - - - - BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA A PROCLAMATION Through Proclamation 7264 of January 11, 2000, President Clinton established the California Coastal National Monument (monument) to protect the biological treasures situated on thousands of unappropriated or unreserved islands, rocks, exposed reefs, and pinnacles owned or controlled by the Government of the United States within 12 nautical miles of the shoreline of the State of California. Presidential Proclamation 9089, issued on March 11, 2014, expanded the monument to include the Point Arena-Stornetta Public Lands, a landscape of coastal bluffs and shelves, tide pools, onshore dunes, coastal prairies, and riverbanks, and the mouth and estuary of the Garcia River. In addition to providing vital habitat for wildlife, these coastal lands were critical for the native peoples who first lived along the California Coast, and they continue to be treasured by modern generations. Six other spectacular areas along the California Coast contain significant scientific or historic resources that are closely tied to the values of the monument. Like the protections afforded by prior proclamations, protection of Trinidad Head, Waluplh-Lighthouse Ranch, Lost Coast Headlands, Cotoni-Coast Dairies, Piedras Blancas, and Orange County Rocks and Islands would protect and preserve objects of historic or scientific interest on the California Coast. Trinidad Head About 30 miles north of Eureka lies the majestic and culturally important promontory known as Trinidad Head. The tip of Trinidad Head encompasses several prominent historic sites along with the rocky ledges that provide their setting, such as the Trinidad Head Light Station, which first operated in 1871 and is still active today.

  • The Land Use Plan: Descriptions and Policies for Thirteen Planning Areas
    -MENDOCINO COUNTY COASTAL ELEMENT - CHAPTER 4 -- THE LAND USE PLAN: DESCRIPTIONS AND POLICIES FOR THIRTEEN PLANNING AREAS NORTH COAST CAC PLANNING AREA 4.1 HUMBOLDT COUNTY LINE TO ROCKPORT PLANNING AREA (List Coast) The northern three quarters (approximately 7.5 miles) of the Lost Coast is in public ownership or is proposed for acquisition by the Department of Parks and Recreation. Private lands in the 1,000-yard-wide coastal zone mainly are in the Timber Preserve Zone or in Agricultural Preserve. Sinkyone Wilderness State Park; Usal Ranch Project Except for a part of the Bureau of Land Management's King Range National Conservation Area (Chemise Mountain Primitive Area) extending south from Humboldt County, most of the coastal zone north of Bear Harbor is Sinkyone Wilderness State Park. No management plan has been prepared by DPR, and no developed campsites exist. The Usal Ranch Project, extending from the Sinkyone Wilderness State Park boundary to a mile south of Usal Creek, is not a part of DPR's officially funded acquisition program. If funds are insufficient, acquisition could be limited to a trail easement or other less-than-full-fee interest in portions of the area. The large beach at Usal Creek is within the funded acquisition program. Land south of the Usal Ranch Project is designated for timberland and agricultural use. Lost Coast residents who have commented on plan proposals for their area strongly favor preservation of wilderness, and most wish to restrict motor vehicle access in Sinkyone State Park within the coastal zone. Coastal Element Policies: Sinkyone Wilderness State Park and the Proposed Usal Ranch project 4.1-1 A management plan for the Sinkyone Wilderness State Park and for the proposed Usal Ranch project shall maintain a wilderness recreational experience wherever appropriate.

Gray Davis, Governor Mary Nichols, Secretary for Resources Members of the Coastal Conservancy Paul Morabito, Chairman Larry Goldzband, Vice-Chairman Tim Gage, Director of Finance Gary Hernandez John Lormon Mary Nichols, Secretary for Resources Sara Wan, California Coastal Commission Susan Hansch, California Coastal Commission (alternate) Fred Klass, Department of Finance (alternate) Mike Spear, Deputy Secretary for Resources (alternate) Legislative Representatives Senator Wes Chesbro Senator Betty Karnette Senator Bruce McPherson Assemblymember Hannah-Beth Jackson Assemblymember Christine Kehoe Sam Schuchat, Executive Officer State Coastal Conservancy 1330 Broadway, Suite 1100 Oakland, CA 94612 (510) 286-1015 January 31, 2003 To the Members of the Legislature: This report is submitted pursuant to Senate Bill 908 of 2001. Completing the California Coastal Trail provides a strategic blueprint for a recreational facility that will have lasting value for California. The Coastal Trail will enable Californians to enjoy our coastal treasures and will attract visitors from around the world. The costs of accomplishing this are reasonable and the benefits manifest. I believe that continuing investment in public access to California’s coastline and parks is essential to maintain and improve our quality of life. As the State’s population continues to grow, more recreational facilities will be needed; well-designed hiking, biking, and equestrian trails provide urban residents with opportunities to enjoy nature without imperiling sensitive habitat areas. State bond funds approved by California voters in 2000 and 2002 should enable the Coastal Conservancy, State Parks, the Wildlife Conservation Board, and other State agencies to complete many of the needed improvements within the next few years.
