About Oliver Lee Memorial State Park

Dog Canyon, cut into the Sacramento Mountains, forms the base around which this 640-acre park is built. The two tracts of land preserve both the canyon itself and Oliver Lee's 19th-century ranch house, sitting at an elevation of 4,400 feet. Visitors can hike a nature trail, view wildlife, and take guided tours through the historic ranch house.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
