The camp is located at 4,100 feet, within the Stanislaus National Forest in the Sierra Nevada mountains. We are in Gold Rush country, about 30 minutes from the historic town of Sonora, and two hours from Yosemite National Park. Instruction is provided in both the classroom and in the surrounding forest. We provide opportunities for educators to learn about the management of different private and public forested lands, fire ecology, biological diversity, and water quality as it all relates to us on a watershed level. Field trips will be taken to nearby logging sites, saw mills, and a co-generation plant. |
