Registration is NOT required for this field trip.

Field Trip Leader: Rich Howard

Folsom Point juts out into the lake and is one of several good areas for scoping water birds. The open oak woodland usually harbors fair numbers of Western Bluebirds and other expected species for this habitat. The boat launch is fairly reliable for Rock Wren.

Meeting Location: Meet Rich at the Raley’s parking lot, 25025 Blue Ravine Rd, Folsom, CA  95630 (at E. Natoma St).

Directions: To reach the Raley’s near Folsom Point, from Highway 50, take the Folsom Boulevard exit (exit 23—18.5 miles east of Interstate 5). Go north on Folsom Blvd for 1.5 miles and turn right on Blue Ravine Road. Go 4.4 miles. Turn right into the shopping center parking lot (just before East Natoma Street). We will then drive 0.5 mile from here to the State Recreation Area. The entrance fee is $12, so bring a state park pass if you have one!
