Humboldt County’s Coastal Cliffs Are Retreating Faster Than Cliffs Anywhere Else in California, Says Study

Humboldt County’s coastal cliffs are crumbling quicker than cliffs anywhere else in California, according to the results of a study released in August. Led by researchers at UC San Diego’s Scripps Institute of Oceanography, scientists flew a prop plane with a lidar sensor — a laser-powered distance measuring tool — up the California coastline in October 2023, plotting the topography of the many hundreds of miles of coastal cliffs along the 1,000-mile shore. (Cliffs compromise about 65% of California’s coastline.) They split each segment of coastal cliffs into 60 different regions, then compared their data with NOAA lidar data from 2016 and measured how far the cliffs’ top edges and main bulk (the cliff face) had retreated during the last seven years.

Are dogs allowed in Redwood National and State Parks?

Are dogs allowed in Redwood National and State Parks?. Are dogs allowed in Redwood National and State Parks? Yes, but not on the trails. The National Park Service and California State Parks jointly manage Redwood National and State Parks in Humboldt and Del Norte counties, and the rule across all of it is the same: pets stay off park trails. That still leaves gravel roads through old-growth redwoods, three beaches, four developed campgrounds, two overlooks and five parking areas where a leashed dog is welcome. Here is the list, plus suggested dog walks, the rules at Humboldt Redwoods State Park and nearby places where dogs can hike on trails.
