A free roaming herd of Tule elk can be observed seeking out water and shade along the creek in summer. Bald eagles soar high above the rushing waters during winter. The Redbud, Perkins Creek Ridge and Judge Davis trails provide access into the Cache Creek Wilderness and connect to a network of trails that expand beyond the monument boundary. Seasonal high water levels may limit access across Cache Creek and Bear Creek. Contact the BLM Ukiah Field Office for up-to-date information about seasonal access to trails and camping areas. Steep trails and river crossings lead adventurous hikers and trail riders to spectacular overlooks and secluded natural areas. Cedar Roughs Wilderness (C-7) Cedar Roughs Wilderness offers hiking, hunting, primitive camping, and wildlife viewing. It protects important botanical and wildlife habitat. Cedar Roughs Wilderness can be accessed on foot or by boat. Access to this wilderness area also traverses non-federal lands, so please be aware of land ownership boundaries before you go. Information about the Cedar Roughs Wilderness is available from the BLM. Information is also available from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife and from Bureau of Reclamation offices at Lake Berryessa. Berryessa Peak & Stebbins Cold Canyon (E6-8) Berryessa Peak and BLM managed lands in the vicinity of Stebbins Cold Canyon offer hiking, wildlife viewing, and other recreational opportunities. Adventurous hikers who climb the steep trails in this area are rewarded with some of the most breathtaking views. Photo by Bob Wick, BLM A rich history of geological formations and human use can be best understood from this vantage point. Federally managed lands are open to the public but some of the popular access routes traverse lands that are not federally managed. Information about these areas can be obtained from the BLM, California Department of Fish and Wildlife, and landowner Tuleyome. Additional information about Stebbins Cold Canyon is available from the U.C. Davis Reserve System. Indian Valley (A-1) Indian Valley Management Area is located in Lake County, just north of SR-20. Indian Valley Reservoir and Blue Oak Campground provide opportunities for fishing, boating, camping, OHV, hunting, and other recreational uses. Kowalski Camp and Wintun Camp offer sites for dispersed camping but no services are available there. Camping may also be available at county campgrounds. This area may be accessed from Walker Ridge Road to the east and from Bartlett Springs Road to the west. Additional pedestrian access is available from the south via the Indian Creek Bridge. This route provides pedestrian access to diverse wildlife habitat but does not provide access to the reservoir. Knoxville Management Area (B-4) Knoxville Management Area consists of 17,700 acres of steep rolling hills, with vegetation ranging from scattered hardwoods and grasses to dense chaparral brush. The steep hills and unique terrain are an attraction for OHV use, camping, picnicking, swimming, and hunting. More than 51 miles of OHV routes are available in Knoxville. The North Staging Area provides a bathroom and parking for recreationists. Hunting Creek Campground offers a bathroom, parking, camping, and access to a beautiful perennial creek. WILDERNESS AREAS Managed to protect wilderness characteristics, three designated areas offer opportunities for solitude and unmechanized, non-motorized recreation. This natural, undeveloped and untrammeled setting provides excellent habitat for wildlife, hikers, backpackers, and horseback riders. The California Wilderness Act of 1984 designated 37,000 acres of the Snow Mountain Wilderness. An additional 23,706 acres was designated in the Northern California Coastal Wild Heritage Wilderness Act of 2006. It also designated 27,245 acres as the Cache Creek Wilderness and 6,350 acres as the Cedar Roughs Wilderness. www.LNT.org As more people use public lands, LEAVE NO TRACE® guidelines become even more important for outdoor visitors.
