The California’s Geomorphic Provinces rocks are mostly buried beneath soils and covered by vigorous redwood forests, which thrive in a climate famous for summer fog and powerful winter storms. The rocks only reveal themselves in steep stream banks, along road and trail cut banks, along the precipitous coastal cliffs and offshore in the form of towering rock monuments or sea stacks.

Few of California’s State parks display impressive monoliths adorned like a Patrick’s Point State Park displays a snapshot of geologic processes that have castle with towering spires and few permit rock climbing.

  • Sutter Butte Flood Control Agency Strategic Plan April 2018 1.0
    Sutter Butte Flood Control Agency Strategic Plan April 2018 1.0 Introduction The Sutter-Butte Basin (Basin) covers 300 square miles bordered by the Cherokee Canal to the north, the Sutter Buttes to the west, the Sutter Bypass to the southwest and the 44-mile long Feather River to the east—see Figure 1. The Basin is home to 95,000 residents and encompasses $7 billion of damageable assets (as estimated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, or USACE). The region has sustained numerous floods, including the 1955 levee failure on the Feather River, which resulted in the deaths of at least 38 people. The personal safety and economic stability of large segments of the population are reliant on flood management systems that, until recent efforts, did not begin to meet modern engineering standards. Numerous projects and programs have been implemented in the Basin over the years to reduce flood risk, including the Feather River West Levee Project, which is nearing completion. The Sutter Butte Flood Control Agency (SBFCA) leads the planning and implementation efforts in the Basin to reduce the risk of catastrophic, riverine flooding. In this role, SBFCA collaborates with local, regional, state, tribal and federal agencies and organizations. On January 13, 2016 the SBFCA Board of Directors adopted the Strategic Plan to guide these efforts. This version is the first update to the Strategic Plan. 2.0 Purpose of the Strategic Plan The purpose of the Strategic Plan is to help formulate and articulate a vision for flood management within the Basin and to describe an approach to achieve this vision.

  • Data on California's Extreme Rainfall from 1862- 1995
    Data on California's Extreme Rainfall from 1862- 1995 By Jim Goodridge PO Box 970 Mendocino CA 95460 707 937 4709 June 29,1996 Prepared for: 19% CALIFORNIA WEATHER SYMPOSIUM Theme: "A prehistoric Look at California Rainfall and Floods" Sierra College Science Center, 5000 Rocklin Road, Rocklin, CA 95677 Introduction Prehistoric storms sculpted Earth's landscape and left evidences of their effects every where we look. Prehistoric storms eroded 10,000 feet of the top of the Sutter Buttes and filled the Sacramento Valley on the west side three miles deep with alluvial sediments. Among the condominiums of Incline Village they left boulders that could only have been deposited between houses by debris flows. Debris flows generally have the density of newly mixed concrete and move at about the speed of a freight train. Debris flows are a major force in sculpting Earth's land surface. All rainfalls when they hit the ground pick up minerals and modify the landscape. Significant sever storms can be quite localized and of short duration. They often fall between the measurements from our rain gage network and even now might still qualify as prehistoric. Sometimes we can find the sudden peaks in the stream flow records to tell us of their existence; if we are lucky. This is an account of some of the measured storms within the memories of recent California inhabitants. Some of these storms have remarkably large return periods (Map 1). They are not limited to the windward slopes like winter time orographic storms, (Map 2) they occur randomly distributed geographically as well as by season.

  • The Sutter Buttes: Attachments to the Land
    The Sutter Buttes: Attachments to the Land Antonio E. Valdes Humboldt State University Abstract The Sutter Buttes are an isolated group of lava domes jutting out of California’s flat Central Valley. They are a publicly valued icon, and have been compared to natural wonders such as Crater Lake and Yosemite, but unlike those icons, access into the Buttes is currently limited to authorized individuals and private landowners (Martin 1991). In 2003 the California Department of Parks and Recreation (State Parks) purchased 1,785 acres in the northern portion of the Buttes (CapRadio 2007). However, because the property is surrounded entirely by private land, the park is currently not available for public use (Rogers 2013). As a result, State Parks has offered many of the surrounding landowners exorbitant prices for their properties, with the intention of augmenting these properties to the park. By doing so, the state hopes to eventually border a county road, thus making the park accessible to the public. However, as of yet, no landowners have sold their properties to the state. This research investigates landowners’ sense of place, and, more specifically, reveals that a positive sense of place is a strong factor in- fluencing a number of the landowners’ decisions to retain the titles to their properties. The Sutter Buttes’ prominence above the surrounding plains, their near- ly perfect circular arrangement, and their geologic distinctiveness from other mountain ranges makes them anything but normal. Indeed, the physical features of the so-called “smallest mountain range in the world” are unique, but it is the human decisions surrounding these physical features that have allowed the Buttes to retain their character as an undeveloped rangeland.

  • Terrestrial Mammal Species of Special Concern in California, Bolster, BC, Ed., 1998
    Terrestrial Mammal Species of Special Concern in California, Bolster, B.C., Ed., 1998 147 Watch List Accounts Salinas ornate shrew, Sorex ornatus salaries Paul W. Collins Museum records of S. o. salarius extend from the vicinity of the mouth of the Pajaro River (Watsonville Slough), Santa Cruz County (Rudd 1948), south along the immediate coast to Carmel (Von Bloeker 1939). This subspecies was originally described as inhabiting coastal salt-marshes and adjacent sandhill areas in the vicinity of Monterey and Carmel bays, Monterey County (Von Bloeker 1938, 1939). According to Williams (1986), it occupies riparian, wetland and upland terrestrial communities in the vicinity of the Salinas River Delta. The capture of 61 ornate shrews near the Salinas River mouth in July 1990 with 700 trap-nights of effort suggests that S. o. salarius may still be common in the area (J. Maldonado pers. comm.). More recent data than these on the distribution and status of this subspecies were not available during the preparation of this document. Although the Salinas ornate shrew has a restricted distribution in a region under pressure from urban and agricultural developments, it occupies a diversity of habitats, and much of the remaining coastal salt marshes within its geographic range are protected from development. Recent surveys indicate it is still common. Rudd (1948) and Junge and Hoffmann (1981) questioned the currently accepted taxonomy of ornate shrews from the vicinity of Monterey Bay. A more extensive range-wide genetic and morphologic evaluation of ornate shrews is currently under way (Maldonado pers. comm.). Results of that study should help to clarify whether ornate shrews from the vicinity of Monterey Bay warrant subspecific recognition.
