The California Toyon brightens the December watershed
landscape with its vivid red fruit, commonly called the” Christmas Berry.” The
berries themselves are precious wintertime food for multiple bird and animal species,
while the abundant foliage provides shelter for nesting and cover from
predators throughout the year.
Elsewhere along the reservoir, some Sawyer Camp Trail
regulars get into the spirit with decorations for a trailside holly tree. Both the Sawyer Camp and San Andreas trails are expected to be open through the Holidays. (For updates, please check http://parks.smcgov.org/crystal-springs-regional-trail.)
