Product Description

Description: Join us for a visit to one of America’s newest national parks! Pinnacles provides a chance to look for specialties of the California interior landscape, including a chance at yellow-billed magpie, canyon wren, Lawrence’s goldfinch, greater roadrunner, loggerhead shrike, and resident prairie falcons. After birding, an NPS ranger/naturalist will do a presentation on the important work the Pinnacles National Park California Condor Recovery Program conducts. Other than Big Sur, Pinnacles offers the next best chance for seeing a California condor.

Participants should bring plenty of water to drink, lunches, and sunscreen for this nearly all-day trip. Make sure you have a full tank of gas.
