1. Friday is World Monitoring Day, so if you want to
learn/help with water quality and photo monitoring,
you’re welcome!
2. Saturday morning the Friends of the South Fork Kings
River is holding a river/road clean up, as part of the
“Great Sierra River Clean Up” from Boyden Cavern to
Roads end, about 16 miles. We last cleaned up the area
in July 2009, but after August and Labor Day Weekend we
like to do an end of the year follow up… nothing nearly
as bad as the Upper American River is, it’s just litter.
Participation is optional, of course.

reservations; 6 people and 1 vehicle per site;
restrooms, drinking water
Sheep
Creek: Open. On main
road 1 mile west of village turnoff. 111 sites. $18/day.
