This special event is a Field Trip to the San Joaquin Valley side of Tejon Ranch Conservancy for our SLO-CNPS chapter members and friends.

Tejon Ranch Conservancy field trip, led by Mike White, conservation science director, will host a 3 to 4 hour walk, choosing the best location to see the spring wildflower bloom within the 240,000 acres Tejon Ranch in the Tehachapi Range. Last year’s Tejon trip featured carpets of spectacular flowers. To decide if this trip is for you, please visit their website, then go to Events, 2011 Community Hike Program, and under General Information scroll down to For more information.

Traveling to the Tejon Ranch: It is about a three to three 1/2 hour drive from SLO to the Tejon Ranch taking Hwy 101, Hwy 166 and Hwy I-5. Specific traveling instructions will be emailed to registered participants once the location for the best spring bloom is determined by the Tejon Ranch Conservancy leader, about a week before 3/26.

To Register: Because SLO-CNPS has made special arrangements with the Tejon Ranch Conservancy all participants must register prior to this event. Limited to 25 people.
