About this site
Peters Canyon Regional Park offers a unique blend of native habitat and man's influence on the land. The park encompasses 340 acres of coastal sage scrub, riparian, freshwater marsh and grassland habitats. The 55-acre Upper Peters Canyon Reservoir is home to many resident and migrating waterfowl. Black willows, sycamores and cottonwoods line the lake and Peters Canyon Creek, which meanders through the canyon. Help us monitor the seasonal rise and fall of the reservoir alongside the long-term fluctuations influenced by climate change.
