    CALIFORNIA RECREATIONAL TRAILS PLAN Providing Vision and Direction for California Trails Tahoe Rim Trail Tahoe Rim Trail TahoeTTahhoe RRiRimm TrailTTrail Complete Progress Report 2011 California State Parks Planning Division Statewide Trails Section www.parks.ca.gov/trails/trailsplan Message from the Director Th e ability to exercise and enjoy nature in the outdoors is critical to the physical and mental health of California’s population. Trails and greenways provide the facilities for these activities. Our surveys of Californian’s recreational use patterns over the years have shown that our variety of trails, from narrow back-country trails to spacious paved multi-use facilities, provide experiences that attract more users than any other recreational facility in California. Th e increasing population and desire for trails are increasing pressures on the agencies charged with their planning, maintenance and management. As leaders in the planning and management of all types of trail systems, California State Parks is committed to assisting the state’s recreation providers by complying with its legislative mandate of recording the progress of the California Recreational Trails Plan. During the preparation of this progress report, input was received through surveys, two California Recreational Trails Committee public meetings and a session at the 2011 California Trails and Greenways Conference. Preparation of this progress Above: Director Ruth Coleman report included extensive research into the current status of the 27 California Trail Corridors, determining which of these corridors need administrative, funding or planning assistance. Research and public input regarding the Plan’s twelve Goals and their associated Action Guidelines have identifi ed both encouraging progress and areas where more attention is needed.

  • California State Parks Western Snowy Plover Management 2009 System-Wide Summary Report
    California State Parks Western Snowy Plover Management 2009 System-wide Summary Report In 1993, the coastal population of western snowy plover (WSP) in California, Washington and Oregon was listed as a threatened species under the Federal Endangered Species Act due to habitat loss and disturbance throughout its coastal breeding range. In 2001, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife (USFWS) released a draft WSP recovery plan that identified important management actions needed to restore WSP populations to sustainable levels. Since California State Parks manages about 28% of California’s coastline and a significant portion of WSP nesting habitat, many of the actions called for were pertinent to state park lands. Many of the management recommendations were directed at reducing visitor impacts since visitor beach use overlaps with WSP nesting season (March to September). In 2002, California State Parks developed a comprehensive set of WSP management guidelines for state park lands based on the information contained in the draft recovery plan. That same year a special directive was issued by State Park management mandating the implementation of the most important action items which focused on nest area protection (such as symbolic fencing), nest monitoring, and public education to increase visitor awareness and compliance to regulations that protect plover and their nesting habitat. In 2007 USFWS completed its Final Recovery Plan for the WSP; no new management implications for State Parks. This 2009 State Parks System-wide Summary Report summarizes management actions taken during the 2009 calendar year and results from nest monitoring. This information was obtained from the individual annual area reports prepared by State Park districts offices and by the Point Reyes Bird Observatory - Conservation Science (for Monterey Bay and Oceano Dunes State Vehicular Recreation Area).

  • Whale Watching in California State Parks
    1/2009 WHALE WATCHING IN CALIFORNIA STATE PARKS Note: It's always a good idea to call the park before your visit to check on current conditions. From December through March, visitors have the opportunity to view the return of the gray whale, the state's official marine mammal. The annual migration of thousands of gray whales (up to 50 long and 45 tons each) begins in Alaskan and moves south along California's coastline to birthing and breeding waters in Baja California. On their journey, the whales move past Point Reyes, the Farallon Islands, through Half Moon Bay and Monterey Bay, and follow the coastline along Southern California before reaching Mexico. The whales travel in small groups and stay close to the shoreline for protection from predators, such as killer whales. Traveling 70 to 80 miles per day, the whales' spouts of vaporized water (at times reaching 12 feet high) can be seen as the whales surface every three to five minutes to breathe. Their 12,000- mile round-trip trek is the longest known distance any mammal migrates on an annual basis. The whales' migration pattern reverses when they lead their new- born calves back to Alaska. State park whale watching sites include: HUMBOLDT COUNTY Humboldt Lagoons State Park (Dry Lagoon), phone: (707) 677-3121 Patrick's Point State Park (Palmer's Point and Wedding Rock) in Trinidad phone: (707) 677-3570 Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park (Gold Bluffs Beach), phone: (707) 464- 6101, extension 5300 MENDOCINO COUNTY MacKerricher State Park (Laguna Point) on the Mendocino Coast three miles north of Fort Bragg, phone: (707) 964-9112 or (707) 937-5804 MONTEREY COUNTY Julia Pfeiffer Burns State park (Vista Point, Highway 1), phone (831) 667-2315 ORANGE COUNTY Crystal Cove State Park (949) 494-3539 SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY Montaña de Oro State Park, phone: (805) 528-0513 San Simeon State Beach, phone: (805) 927-2035 SANTA BARBARA COUNTY El Capitan State Beach (805) 585-1850 SAN LUIS OBISPO OUNTY Estero Bluffs State Park (805) 772-7434 .

  • The Underwater Parks of California Are Located Primarily Along the Coastline, Stretching from Mendocino County in the North to San Diego County in the South
    INTO THE BLUE: UNDERWATER ARCHAEOLOGY IN CALIFORNIA STATE PARKS TRICIA DODDS AND DENISE JAFFKE CALIFORNIA STATE PARKS The underwater parks of California are located primarily along the coastline, stretching from Mendocino County in the north to San Diego County in the south. Mono Lake, D. L. Bliss, Emerald Bay-Lake Tahoe, and Lake Perris represent inland underwater parks. The California Department of Parks and Recreation’s underwater parks program was established in 1968 to preserve the best and most unique representative examples of the state’s natural underwater ecosystems found in coastal and inland waters. Since that time, State Parks has established 19 underwater parks, with over 60 proposals for new parks under consideration. This article provides an overview of this important program, reviews our current knowledge of submerged cultural resources, and outlines our goals for future underwater archaeological projects. California is blessed with many natural splendors. Of the contiguous states, it has the highest peak, the lowest valley, the largest fault system, the oldest and largest trees, and the greatest number of plant and animal species in North America. Its historical superlatives are no less dramatic. Aboriginal California was home to more than 300,000 people, a greater number than any comparable area north of Mesoamerica. It also has a very rich and varied maritime history. What connects California to the World Ocean more than its history? California, a land of legend and mystery, was explored, colonized and described by sea. Thus it's only fitting that we take active steps to understand and manage these maritime heritage sites as part of our legacy from the past [Foster 2002].
