During this exciting event, join certified California Naturalist and photographer Charlie Russell on a wildflower excursion at North Table Mountain Ecological Reserve! This area, located approximately seven miles north of Oroville, is one of the most spectacular wildflower locations in California, with over 540 different species of plants. Participants will spend the day searching for early season wildflowers in a variety of microclimates. The excursion will be approximately 4-5 miles roundtrip and a sack lunch will be provided and enjoyed along the way.

Charlie Russell is a certified California Naturalist and is a longtime enthusiast of wildflower photography. He documents his discoveries on his website and has recently begun branching out into wildlife and landscape photography. Russell is also a dedicated docent for Yolo Basin Foundation and the Jepson Prairie Preserve. For more information about Charlie, visit ibrakeforwildflowers.com.

Sturdy hiking footwear is essential, as the ground is quite rocky and uneven, possibly with some muddy areas. Please dress according to the weather- this is a rain or shine event. Bring plenty of water and a backpack for carrying a sack lunch. There is limited cell reception once at the site location.

**Please note, there are bathrooms located at the beginning of the trail but they will be inaccessible for a few hours during the excursion.
