Los Osos Oaks State Natural Reserve is aCalifornia State Park in westernSan Luis Obispo County, in theCentral Coast of California region. It preserves centuries-oldcoast live oaks (Quercus agrifolia) growing atoprelictsand dunes.[2] It is located in theLos Osos Valley betweenSan Luis Obispo andBaywood Park-Los Osos, just outside the town ofLos Osos. It is also the only place the critically endangered Splitting Yarn or Iron Maiden's Hair lichenSulcaria isidiifera can be found.[3] The 85-acre (34 ha) park was established in 1972.[4]

Area history

[edit]

There are several prehistoric sites in the proximate vicinity of the Los Osos Oaks State Natural Reserve, in addition toarchaeological recovery within the reserve itself. A significant-sizedChumash site,Los Osos Back Bay, has been partially excavated on a stabilized sand dune slightly to the north of the reserve dating to at least as early as 1200 CE.[5]

Proposed for closure

[edit]

The reserve was one of several state parks threatened with closure in 2008. After the2009 California state special elections, in which voters turned down a package of propositions dealing withCalifornia budget crisis, GovernorArnold Schwarzenegger proposed the temporary closure (for at least 2 years) of 220 parks.[6] The closures were ultimately avoided by cutting hours and maintenance system-wide.[7]
