Headwaters Tour: July 24-25

Registration is now open for our Headwaters Tour July 24-25! Venture with us into the foothills and mountains of the Sierra Nevada with experts to examine water issues that happen upstream but have dramatic impacts on water supply and quality downstream and throughout California.

With more than half of the state’s developed water supply originating high in the Sierra Nevada, millions of Californians are affected by the health of our forests that are suffering from a series of multi-year droughts and historically intense wildfires. 

This 2-day, 1-night tour starts and ends in Sacramento and travels up the American River watershed, around Lake Tahoe (where we overnight) and down the Yuba River watershed. During the tour, we will explore the effects of fire on water supply and quality, forest management research and practice, California’s tree mortality epidemic, meadow restoration and climate change impacts. Find more details here and how to register.
