UPDATE

July 17th, 2003 the Coyote wildfire ripped through the northeast portion of San Diego County destroying most of San Diego State University's Sky Oaks Field Station.

The good news is that we are now in the process of rebuilding our field station!

The Sky Oaks Field Station (1600 acres) is a unique resource. Its watersheds are generally well protected by the adjacent Anza Borrego State Park, Cleveland National Forest, cooperating private areas, and Bureau of Land Management properties.
