Join us as we celebrate a Chapter tradition of welcoming the New Year with a walk and picnic at Año Nuevo State Preserve on the San Mateo County coast.
The preserve is located south of Pescadero on Highway 1, just north of the Santa Cruz County line. We’ll meet in the parking lot ($10 day use fee or valid CA State Park Pass) at 10am. Latecomers will find us on the trail in the coastal prairie. We’ll enjoy ocean views, sea cliff vegetation, raptors, songbirds and maybe marine mammals.
We will see whether we can picnic on the beach (in the area in which seal tour reservations are not required). As this is a day to have fun at the beach with fellow Chapter members, the ending time and depth of botanical discussion may be extended depending on participants.
We will finish at the visitor center. Bring binoculars and layers of clothing for variable conditions including wind, sun and fog. Extreme weather cancels.
