About this site

From this point, visitors can observe the dynamic connection between the Cosumnes River and Tihuechemne Slough—where seasonal flows shape habitat and support diverse wildlife.


Seasonal & Climate Resilience to Observe

Flow Patterns – Timing and intensity of winter floods and summer low-water conditions.

Sediment Movement – Deposition and channel changes after storm events.

Vegetation Response – Regeneration of native riparian and wetland plants following floods.

Wildlife Presence – Fish and bird use during high- and low-flow periods.

Monitoring these patterns helps track how this river–slough system adapts to drought, extreme rainfall, and long-term climate variability while maintaining habitat function.

About Cosumnes River Preserve

The Cosumnes River Preserve consists of over  50,000 acres of wildlife habitat and agricultural lands owned by seven land-owning Partners. The Partners include The Nature Conservancy, Bureau of Land Management, California Department of Fish & Wildlife, Sacramento County Regional Parks, Department of Water Resources, Ducks Unlimited, and the California State Lands Commission. The Preserve is centered along the Cosumnes River, its floodplains and riparian habitat. This habitat is buffered by a variety of agricultural operations. The Preserve provides numerous social, economic, and recreational benefits to local communities and to people residing in the larger Sacramento and San Joaquin areas. The habitat supports wildlife, including birds that migrate throughout the Pacific Flyway.
