Channel Islands Trip

For our Channel Islands trip we had the opportunity to stay at the UC Reserve Research Station on the Nature Conservancy side of the island. As an Environmental Studies major I was beyond excited to be able to visit this area. It was my third time on Santa Cruz Island but it was definitely my favorite trip. We spent a lot of time hiking, exploring, swimming, and going to different beaches. On the third day the maintenance managers took us on a tour of the island and we got to see the diversity of habitat types that there are in such a small area. I also loved talking to the raptor researchers who were staying at the field station with us. They definitely have my dream job.
