Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park History: Set aside in the early 1920’s by the state of California and the Save-the-Redwoods League, Prairie Creek State Park is a sanctuary of old growth coast redwood. Along with Del Norte Coast, Jedediah Smith, and Redwood National Park, these parks make up 45 percent of all the old-growth redwood forest remaining in California. Orick, CA. 695 miles from Los Angeles. About 10 hours and 47 minutes drive. Enrance Fee: $12 / car Slide-1

Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park Why it’s worth visiting: “Fern Canyon” is awe-inspiring. Ferns smother the walls of the canyon. Ferns are descendants of an ancient group of plants which were much more numerous 200 million years ago. Ferns are similar to flowering plants, but are considered to be a primitive form of plant life because they reproduce by spores, not seeds. The canyon opens to Gold Bluffs Beach. Prairie Creek offers camping, hiking, nature study, wildlife viewing, beach combing, picnicking, a visitor center with exhibits and a nature store. Slide 2
