Plumas Audubon Society

North Shore Lake Almanor, led by Abby Hester

Olsen Barn Meadow

$30 Adults, $5 kids. Limited to 13 participant boats (option to bring your own boat*).Meet at 7:30 AM at Olsen Barn Meadow. Look for the signs, right off of Hwy 36 east of Chester just before the causeway.You must bring WATER and SUN PROTECTION.Activity level 5. Participants under the age of 17 must be accompanied by an adult and be able to paddle a kayak at least 700 meters across open water (one way). Roundtrip is approximately 2 miles of paddling.Kayaks, paddles, and PFDs will be provided or you can bring your own. We will travel across the upper north lobe of Lake Almanor with views of Mt. Lassen before traveling down the western shoreline towards the mouth of the Feather River and then returning to the causeway. The most diverse assemblage of wildlife on Lake Almanor can be found in the shallow waters of our trip. Accessing this area on kayaks will allow us to get much closer to wildlife than we would be able to on foot. While keeping our distance, participants will have the chance to view Western and Clark&#x27;s Grebes on nests and observe the frenetic behavior of an active nesting colony. August is prime time for viewing many other water birds on this part of the lake including: American White Pelicans, White-faced Ibis, Double-crested Cormorants, shorebirds, terns, gulls, seven species of waterfowl, and often eagles and falcons.​*To bring your own kayak, please contact Liz Ramsey at 530-616-8670 or elizabeth@plumasaudubon.org
