A Balmy Golden Autumn ! A Balmy Golden Autumn ! The Red Hills Terroir Vineyard Pathway View of Anderson Marsh State Historic Park from Vigilance Winery One of the most captivating views in Lake County is on the Vigilance Winery & Vineyard grounds. We're delighted that the tasting room re-opened this year, with hours from Friday-Sunday, 11am-5pm. Visitors are invited to enjoy their wine and lunches at picnic tables beneath apple and walnut trees while taking in views of serene, gently-sloping vineyards and the distant Anderson Marsh. A fine bocce court invites you to tarry a bit longer and play a few rounds while catching glimpses of the lovely scenery. For those not familiar with this area, you'll be delighted to discover a vineyard pathway linking this winery to another, Gregory Graham Wines, further down Pt. Lakeview Rd. Click on the map for the link to the full description on the KRT Website. You definitely won't come home empty-handed after the tastings. Vigilance, owned by the Shannon family, also offers Shannon Ranch grass-fed lamb! Ambling in Anderson Marsh State Historic Park A hiker and runner meet beneath a giant oak on the Cache Creek Trail. The cooler months have a way of drawing us back to wide open spaces like Anderson Marsh. Giant oak and walnut trees welcome you at the trailhead for the Cache Creek Trail, and with the old barn and historic ranch home, you can't help but feel nostalgic. The guided walks are done for the year, but the park remains open throughout the week to amblers and runners, and most of all, nature enthusiasts (bring your binoculars). It is nothing short of delightful to wander from broad, sun- drenched meadows to the graceful arches of oaks that create an enchanting chiaroscuro of shadow and light. Anderson Marsh Interpretive Association's "Old Fashioned Christmas Open House" will be held once more in the historic ranch house on Saturday, Dec. 13 from 10am-2pm. It's a great opportunity to spend time with the devoted AMIA Board members and volunteers who have shared their love for this park in a festive Victorian setting replete with music, a warm hearth, homemade sweets, cider, and of course, Santa Claus! For more information about the event, contact AMIA at [email protected] or call 707-995-2658. Paper Subdivision Draft Management Plan Under Review The steep hills bordering the north shore of Clear Lake contain over 10,000 "un-developable" parcels commonly referred to as "paper subdivisions." Created in the early 20th century by land speculators, the lots have remained unbuilt due to geographic instability and no provisions for water, sewer, drainage or adequate roads. Last month, a long-range Paper Subdivision Draft Management Plan was completed by staff from the Community Development Department with input from several area site visits and research compiled primarily by KRT volunteers Holly Harris and Chuck Lamb to address these areas. It includes a pilot project proposed to acquire land and create a series of trails in the hills above Lucerne. Many thanks to all community volunteers and County staff who have participated in the site visits and produced this long-awaited draft! The plan will be presented to the Board of Supervisors on Nov. 18th at 9:30am by the Lake County Community Development Department. The draft plan can be viewed from a link to the KRT Northshore Study Area. Mendocino National Forest staff and KRT volunteers at a paper subdivision cleanup event in spring 2014 Mt Konocti Intepretive Panels Nearing Completion Thanks to the dedicated work of KRT Volunteer Tom Nixon, County staff Linda Lake, and graphic artist Gerri Groody, the last interpretive panels to be installed at several locations on Mt. Konocti will soon be completed. Funding for the panels was made possible through Public Service's submission of a CA State Parks Habitat Conservation Fund grant application that was approved after the County acquired parcels on Mt Konocti in 2009. The panels discuss topics and include archived as well as vivid photographs relating to the mountain's namesake, the geology, local Native Americans, origins of the CDF tower on Wright Peak, local flora and fauna, and pioneer woman, Mary Downen. The team will also be developing an additional panel that will honor the memory of Mae and Mervin Enzler who perished in a tragic aircraft crash in January 1970 on their way to Ukiah. The site is about 200 ft from the summit of Wright Peak. Funding for that panel is currently being sourced. Another Successful Konocti Challenge! Congratulations to the Lakeport Rotary Club, and especially to Ride Director, Jennifer Strong, for another outstanding community event that attracted hundreds of out-of-town bike riders to Lake County. The Konocti Challenge was held at a new location this year - the Skylark Shores Resort - which provided a much larger and beautiful venue for the bike riders. As always, riders commented on the excellent service by the SAG team, the rest stop organizations, and helpful staff. County staff and volunteers provided trails information at a KRT booth situated right next to the registration tent. They also signed up hikers interested in a guided docent hike to Wright Peak. The package included transportation, courtesy of Hoberg's Resort & Spa, unlimited ice cold drinks, lunch, and an olive oil tasting, courtesy of Chacewater Winery & Olive Mill. Many thanks to the docents who participated in the "day-after-Konocti Challenge" hike! Emilio de la Cruz presents Chacewater's olive oil selections to the hiking crew on Wright Peak. South County Volunteers Consider Lasting Improvements To Protect Putah Creek Over the years, the Caltrans parcel situated in the southeast corner of the Hwy 29 and Hartmann Rd. intersection has seen many challenges, primarily illegal OHV access (including on adjoining private parcels), as well as dumping. Supervisor Comstock, Mendocino Nat'l Forest OHV Recreation staff, Valley Oaks developer Ken Porter, and Hidden Valley Lake volunteers discuss long term solutions to protect Putah Creek and opportunities to develop a creekside trail. The KRT "SCOUT" (South County Overland Unity Trails) team invited Mike Burmann and Laura Bates, Mendocino National Forest OHV Recreation staff, to meet with Supervisor Comstock, and Valley Oaks developer Ken Porter, who plans a small park adjacent to the parcel to discuss the future of this parcel. As Mike and Laura have been involved in similar creekside restoration projects such as the Middle Creek Campground just north of Upper Lake, they were sought to provide advice on ways to manage OHV incursions on these areas, and restore native vegetation to protect the stream bank. Caltrans still retains ownership of the parcel; an attempt to put it up for auction this past spring did not produce any parties willing to offer a $50K starting bid. The team decided to outline a staged plan that would identify stakeholders in the surrounding area, and develop steps to prevent further serious riparian area degredation. At a future time, they envision a trail that would connect to the HVL levee along Putah Creek, and possibly also running west toward Big Canyon Rd. Konocti Regional Trails Meeting in December The last KRT Team Meeting for the year will take place at the Board of Supervisors Chambers on Friday, Dec. 5th, from 10am-noon. The meeting is open to the public. Several project opportunities have been identified in the last year. Because of limited resources, we will be narrowing down our focus on just a few, and will discuss ways to keep our ears to the ground for longer-term projects. The team will be also be discussing fundraising and grant opportunities. For more information, please contact Gigi Stahl at 707-263-2580.

  • Konocti Regional Trails Master Plan
    County of Lake Public Services Department Konocti Regional Trails Master Plan January 11, 2011 County of Lake Public Services Department Konocti Regional Trails Master Plan January 11, 2011 PREPARED FOR: County of Lake Public Services Department PREPARED BY: Alta Planning + Design COVER PHOTO BY: Rivers, Trails, and Ron Keas Conservation Assistance Konocti Regional Trails Master Plan Acknowledgements The development of the Konocti Regional Trails (KRT) Master Plan would not have happened without the tremendous amount of volunteer energy and time that went into this project. Holly Harris and Chuck Lamb were the catalysts for this trails effort and have been instrumental in moving the planning process forward over the past two years. Each has contributed countless hours in many capacities – from on-the-ground mapping of land- and water-based trails, to sharing the concept of a countywide network of trails with business owners, service organizations, and property owners, to developing content and creating the KRT web site. Many community members and organizations from across Lake County have stepped forward at various stages to provide valuable input by responding to surveys, attending workshops and meetings, and suggesting and prioritizing trail concepts. This input provided the basis for this plan, which exemplifies a successful grassroots, community-driven effort. Under the guidance and expertise of Barbara Rice of the National Park Service, Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance Program, the KRT Team had a seasoned trails expert involved from day one. As part of a grant from NPS-RTCA, Ms. Rice provided technical assistance and support to the KRT Team throughout the process.

  • 1 Recreational Mountain Biking
    Recreational mountain biking: A case study of sustainable trail development at Boggs Demonstration State Forest, Cobb, California. by Lauren N. Claussen A CAPSTONE PAPER submitted to Oregon State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Natural Resources Presented March 23, 2021 1 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost, a sincere thank you to my graduate advisor, Dr. Michael Harte, for mentoring me through the MNR program, providing guidance and constructive comments as I developed my project, and for your encouraging feedback and wisdom over the past few years. It has been a pleasure to work with my committee members, and I am so grateful for the time and knowledge they have shared with me through this process. Dr. Ashley D’Antonio, thank you for opening my eyes to the field of recreation ecology and providing your expertise on my mapping and analysis questions, and Lynette de Silva who provided assistance with feedback and final edits on my project. I could not have done this without support from my family, who have always been my biggest cheerleaders. Thank you to my husband, Nicholas, who first introduced me to the sport of mountain biking, and always encourages me to find comfort and growth in the uncomfortable – whether on a trail or in life. Your assistance in data collection at Boggs was invaluable, and there’s nobody I’d rather do field work in the freezing rain with! All the professors and faculty I have learned from and interacted with during my time at Oregon State have helped further my research, writing, and analysis skills, and I am so grateful for this opportunity and experience.

    RE: ISO rating letter Wed 5/13/2020 9:38 AM 1 attachments (3 MB) SouthLakeCoFD_CA.pdf; Chief Wink, I want to first congratulate you on achieving a one class improvement. In this rang area class 5 to 1 it can be challenging to beer your score a whole point. The response area that you’re responsible for has been devastated by several major fires over the past couple of years and this class improvement can be a posive for residence and business owners alike. I’ve provided a map, it’s the same one we went over during our meeng. This is a five mile map, the pink areas within the gray area are Class 3, the gray areas are 3Y, and a majority of the white areas are Class 10W. The 10W apply to properes within 5-7 mile of a staon. The W stands for water which is taking into consideraon your water tender fleet and your ability to provide 250 GPM for two hours to those outlying areas. Properes beyond 7 miles of a staon are Class 10. A couple thing to keep in mind about the areas in your district that are rated 10. When insurance brokers quote premiums in those areas the premiums can be lower knowing that those area are protected by a class 3 department. If they were a standalone 10 the premiums can be higher. I’m available anyme if you want to discuss further Mike DiMaggio PPC Field Representave hp://www.isomigaon.com/ Fw: ISO rating letter Tue 5/12/2020 9:38 AM 2 attachments (12 MB) ISO Public Protection Class 042720.pdf; ISO Analysis 20140630.pdf; Good morning Mike Dimaggio (ISO), We have received our leer.

  • A-1 Appendix A. the History of the Stone and Kelsey Murders and Bloody Island Massacre As Told by William Ralganal Benson. This
    Appendix A. The history of the Stone and Kelsey murders and Bloody Island Massacre as told by William Ralganal Benson. This version was taken from the Elem Indian Colony website, http://www.elemnation.org/bloodyisland.htm. Errors in spelling and punctuation were not corrected, as they may be part of the original version. The first published version is likely to have been found in ‘The Stone and Kelsey “Massacre” on the Shores of Clear Lake in 1849’ by W.R. Benson. “California Historical Society Quarterly”, Vol. 11, pp. 266-273, 1932. Introduction by P. Radin. The introduction in the paragraph below is an incomplete excerpt from the introduction by P. Radin. Introduction: The writer, William Benson has at various times been informant and interpreter for most of the American anthropologists who have visited Lake County. He was born about 1862 near Lakeport, then very thinly settled by whites. He is a Pomo, and has been hereditary chief of both the Xolo-Napo and the XabopNapo divisions of his people. His Pomo name is Raganal, which means the "Wampum Gatherer" His family name (Benson) comes from LIZ father, a white settler, who followed the practice of some early squaw men or' abandoning white life entirely and residing permanently in the Pomo village. He died when his son was a mere child, and Benson there fore spoke only Pomo in his youth. Benson bears a high reputation for integrity and reliability. He is wholly without formal schooling, and his knowledge of English was picked up almost entirely by ear. However he taught himself to read as well, so that to some extent, his purely-phonetic spelling has corrected it self.
