Creeks and Meadow
The pasture to the west of the house is flood-irrigated from
neighboring land. Across Carr Creek, to the south of the house, there are
many potential building sites. A previous owner had at one time planned to
build there, so there is already power and water to the area.

Nearby Terrain
The hill behind our house is covered in Black & White Oaks, conifers and
Madrones. When we bought the place, we were told it was owned by BLM. We
were not the only buyers to be misled. It is owned by SPI and they are
logged it in 2002 or 2003. It was an "alternative prescription", meaning they
took only the trees being harvested and left the rest, as opposed to a clear-cut. In
spite of the destruction I have seen at other sites, we were lucky, and it
doesn't look too bad. However, they will likely be back on 5-10 years to clear-cut
the hill, once the trees reach an even age.
