RROS Field Trip to Sugar Loaf Ridge State Park

Join Gene Hunn on a 3-mile loop walk around Sugar Loaf Ridge SP, for birds, flowers, and what not. The loop trail begins at the parking lot just above the entry kiosk up Adobe Canyon Road from SR12 in Kenwood. There is a $10 entry fee per car ($8 for seniors). The trail fords a stream, then climbs up along the south hillside before intersecting the planetary trail between Uranus and Saturn. We then return past Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, and Earth past the planetarium to our starting point. Expect many of the usual oak woodland and chaparral breeding birds. Bring a picnic lunch. For information contact Gene Hunn – enhunn323@comcast.net or (206) 450-0570. If you also join us for the RROS May 14 Wednesday evening picnic potluck (at the picnic tables near the parking lot) you may be able to add some nocturnal species with Ruth Rudesill.
