Happy International Dog Day!! 🐕 🐩 Quick question… what do dogs like most? Walks! And what are walks also called? Hikes! And where do we get to go on awesome hikes? Right here in the Sierra Nevada mountains. Just sayin’ 😉

🍁 Looking for a place in Southern California where Autumn feels like Fall? Make sure to visit the Kern River Valley in Late October and you’ll find a roaring river lined with trees in the most amazing shades of yellow, orange and red. It’s a lovely time of year and a great place to experience Fall in all its beautiful shades.

Christmas Magic is in the air on the Kern River Ranger District

It may only be November but get ready to ring in the holiday spirit – Sequoia National Forest’s Kern River Ranger District Online Christmas Tree Permits will be available on Recreation.gov beginning Monday, November 13 at 8 am!

Fourth graders with Every Kid Outdoors pass are eligible for a free Christmas tree permit and can apply by entering the pass or voucher number when purchasing a permit (note: a $2.50 reservation fee will be applied).

With the permit, you can visit the Kern River Ranger District’s designated areas to cut down your Christmas Tree. This special event is the perfect way to start or carry on a special tradition, make memories in the , and ring in the Christmas spirit, all while helping to maintain a healthy forest.

The permit system helps to thin densely populated stands of small-diameter trees. Local forest health experts identify areas that benefit from thinning trees that are the perfect size for Christmas trees. Removing these trees in designated areas helps other trees grow larger and can open areas that provide food for wildlife.

Jingle bell rock your way over Recreation.gov Monday starting at 8 am for a Christmas Tree Permit.

The Jurassic Jeep made it out into its natural habitat yesterday. Took it on a ride up and into . We met up with and folks from and out in a some volunteer hours planting willows . And because the was just around the corner (only a 2 mile detour) we stopped to look at some giant trees on the way home. Good times and a fun day away from , which for us usually means a whole lotta work 😅

Last week we had a fun group of guests visiting who really took advantage of everything the area has to offer. Hundreds of miles of backcountry trails make this a fantastic playground for ATVs, motor cycles, side-by-sides, Jeeps and all types of 4x4s and mountain bikes.

You can ride for miles and miles without ever seeing another person.

Fun stuff!
