Haystack Rock

Haystack Rock is a 235-foot (72-meter) tall monolith (or sea stack) on the Oregon coast in the northwestern United States, the third-tallest such "intertidal" meaning it can be reached by land, structure in the world. A popular tourist destination, the rock is adjacent to the beach and accessible by foot during low tide. Haystack Rock tide pools are home to many intertidal animals, including starfish, anemone, crabs, chitons, limpets, and sea slugs. The rock is also a refuge for many sea birds, including terns and puffins.

Composed of basalt, Haystack Rock was formed by lava flows emanating from the Grand Ronde Mountains 10 to 17 million years ago.

New River is a dynamic, ever-changing system influenced by biological, climatological, geo-physical, and fluvial processes. The river and adjacent lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) are in a special management category known as the New River Area of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC). The New River ACEC is managed to maintain biodiversity and quality habitats for native communities of plants, birds, animals, and fish. It also provides protection to cultural sites and affords educational, interpretive, and recreational opportunities to the visiting public in a manner consistent with the primary goals of protecting natural and cultural resources.

BLM’s vision of the New River area includes protecting or enhancing habitats for a diversity of wildlife and plant species. Varied ecosystems such as meadows, forests, wetlands, coastal lakes, open sand dunes, and the New River estuary will continue to support this biodiversity. This includes a more stable meandering river with greater riparian vegetation. BLM also envisions a visiting public that will appreciate and enjoy the varied ecosystems protected at New River in a way that will not degrade the naturalness of the setting or the quality of the visitor experience. BLM will manage the ACEC primarily for non-motorized public use that is compatible with the semi-primitive natural setting evident throughout most of the area.

In 1983, BLM designated 686 acres of federal lands along New River as an Area of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC) to protect this unique natural area. In 1989, a land acquisition plan was completed, and over the next eight years, BLM acquired an additional 670 acres of private lands from willing sellers, bringing the current total land base of the ACEC to 1,356 acres.

The primary resource values for the New River ACEC include:

  • River area and uplands contain important habitat for the American and Arctic Peregrine Falcon, Bald Eagle, Aleutian Canada Goose, and Western Snowy Plover – all federally listed species.
  • Botanical species habitat supported in the New River area include silvery phacelia, western bog lily, pink sand-verbena – all federally proposed or candidate species.
  • Plant Communities – Includes natural meadows, wetlands, sand dunes, and other habitat types supporting many unique plant species.
  • Wildlife Habitat – Upland areas provide supporting habitat types and act as a buffer which supports the integrity of the river habitat areas.
  • Historic/Cultural – Numerous, extensive prehistoric camps and villages border the river.”

Gilroy

John Gilroy, a Scotch sailor and the first permanent non-Spanish settler in California, was left ashore in Monterey in 1814 by the Hudson's Bay vessel Isaac Todd because he was sick with scurvy. He settled in the Santa Clara Valley and married into a Mexican land grant family, whose rancho eventually became called "Gilroy's" (Gudde, 1969, p. 120).

Full Size ImageRejuvenated Hot Spring After San Simeon Earthquake.  

 A magnitude 6.5 earthquake struck the central California coast on December 22, 2003 at 11:15:56 am (PST). The event was located 11 km NE of San Simeon, and 39 km WNW of Paso Robles, where the brunt of the damage and casualties occurred. Two deaths occurred due to a building collapse in Paso Robles.

The magnitude 6.5 temblor ruptured a hot springs aquifer and as much as 1,000 gallons per minute of sulfurous water is pouring out of the ground at the City Hall parking lot.

The rupture was caused by the quake because it started the same day. It first appeared as a steaming spring about 4 inches high and 24 inches in diameter in the Paso Robles City Hall Parking lot (P. Rafferty, pers. comm.).

Locations: Paso Robles.
Full Size ImageRejuvenated Hot Spring After San Simeon Earthquake.  

 The warm water has the rotten-egg smell typical of hot springs. State water officials said the sulfurous water does not pose a public health threat but may be harmful to the Salinas River ecosystem. In addition to sulfur, the water could contain other dissolved minerals that could be toxic to fish. The warm temperature of the water may also be harmful. The water was being channeled into the city's storm drain system, which eventually empties into the Salinas River.

 When I first saw the rejuvenated hot spring, Friday, 26 December 2003, a hole about 10 feet deep and 30 feet in diameter had been dug in the parking lot. Various approaches to pumping out the water were being tried. A pump was lowered part way into the pit, but several days later it had been removed. City officials have not figured out a way to stop the flow.

View of San Luis Obispo from Bishop's Peak
San Luis Obispo was founded as the Mission San Luis Obispo de Tolosa in 1772 by Father Junípero Serra. The mission was named after Saint Louis, a 13th Century Bishop of Toulouse, France. Mission San Luis Obispo de Tolosa was the fifth mission in the California chain of 21 missions along El Camino Real. The closest mission to the south is La Purisima Concepcion, while the closest mission to the north is San Miguel Arcangel.

The City of San Luis Obispo serves as the commercial and cultural hub of California’s Central Coast, as well as being the county seat of San Luis Obispo County. One of California’s oldest communities, the city was was first incorporated in 1856. With a population of 44,000, the City is located eight miles from the Pacific Ocean and is midway between San Francisco and Los Angeles at the junction of Highway 101 and scenic Highway 1. A well-known state university and my alma mater, California Polytechnic State University, is located on the north edge of town.
