Morro Coast Audubon Society Presents Looking for Beavers along Salinas River [photo by Brittany App]
Field Trip: Habitat: Visit the Atascadero Beavers with SLO Beaver Brigade
Date: Monday, June 23, 2025
Time: 9:00am to 11:00am
Leader(s): SLO Beaver Brigade
Description: There are four beaver families in the Salinas River in Atascadero this year! We are going to visit one of these families and see their dam that was built this May. We'll see a beaver dam, beaver chews, other signs (scat, trails, drags) and lots of bird activity. Come join us as we explore this new dam and beaver complex and see what changes have happened since our last visit. The walk is a half-mile walk out to the ponds on sandy, rocky trails. It is helpful to wear water shoes or tall boots since we typically walk into the water up to our shins, or old sneakers you won't mind walking with into the water. Restrooms are not available. This field trip is not ADA accessible and is open to all levels of experience.
