Restoration
Cavern Point is one of the most visited locations in the park due to its incredible views. However, the area was severely impacted with poorly delineated trails, social trailing, severe erosion, and degraded vegetation. Between 2018 and 2020, this area was rehabilitated to improve the visitor experience, restore native plant communities, protect cultural resources, an improve habitat for wildlife. Over 5 acres of native coastal bluff scrub and coastal sage scrub plant communities were planted, the trail system was clearly defined and improved, and two overlooks were established.
