Landels-Hill Big Creek Reserve

11 May, 10 AM - 15 May, 01 AM

The purpose of our visit is to study and view first hand the flora and ecology of the Reserve, Santa Lucia Mts, and nearby coastal areas. The 3 days and 4 nights planned at the Landels Hill/Big Creek Reserve form an integral part of a 15-day fieldtrip from the University of Oklahoma after a semester-long seminar course with readings and presentations on the Geology, Biogeography, Ecology, and Floristics of the central coastal California region. The class will not be making any collections, but the instructor (Elisens) would like permission to make a few plant collections for the University of Oklahoma Herbarium (OKL). We plan no destructive sampling or manipulations of natural systems. Our field itinerary is mostly observational, since the fieldtrip serves as the "laboratory" for the on-campus seminar portion of the course. Students in this course visited the Reserve previously in 1998. Field sites within the reserve and region include the interpretative trails in the Reserve and areas in the adjoining National Forest.
