The Cosumnes River is the last remaining free-flowing river in California's Central Valley. The 46,000-acre (190 km2) preserve, 20 miles (30 km) south of Sacramento, is on the river's lower reach, where it joins the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta tidelands. It protects a remnant that once contained one of the largest expanses of oak tree savanna, riparian oak forest, and wetland habitat in North America.
