A stroll across rolling volcanic
tableland cloaked in blue oak savanna (with a few juniper).
Past herds of large grazing herbivores (cattle), to a rocky
outcrop on the edge of Iron Canyon. This is where the
Sacramento River comes out of the hills and enters the
Great Central Valley.
The Sacramento is an
important salmon route, and is California's first or second
largest river.
South from here it is flat
for about 435 miles to Grapevine, at the south end of the
Great Central Valley.
