Exploring Lodestar

Saturday
BTL-devised Nature Trail of the land and trails around Lodestar; designed and led by Richard and Vicki Larson and Peggy O'Connell. Down the trail and through the woods to meadows, the pond and grinding rocks, describing flora, fauna, natural land forms, and how the land was used by Northern Sierra Miwok and early pioneers.

Others chimed in with more fun facts:
  • Where were the Miwuk burial sites and where did we dig for Lodestar beads?
  • Who built a treehouse over the pond?
  • Why did the church sell Lodestar? 

The Trail Guide is downloadable here
After lunch, one group drove to the old swimming hole, the North Fork of the Mokelumne River.
Others followed trails though the forest to the Middle Fork.
Lidar images of Lodestar, photos of early Fall in the Meadow, the Oak Tree, and the forest.
