Hunters : Good Deer Season Forcast SACRAMENTQ., .California’s late deer season, which opens Saturday and continues through Noy. 5, should produce.a repeat of the record and near-rocord kills of last year in the northwest and north central counties of the state, an average kill in the southern California counties involved, anda below average kill in Kern, Inyo, Mono, Lassen, Modoc and eastern Siskiyou, reports the Department of Fish and Game, Weather, asit affects deer movements and hunter effort and access, will play a key role in determining whether the overall late season kill is above or below that of last year, notes the DFG, In Nevada County, last year's kill was the second highest on record, and the outlook is for good hunging TAHOE FOREST FIRES Fires Since Sept. 13: 8 1 Man Caused 7 Lightning All very small 1 in Truckee District 2 in Camptonville District 2in Nevada City District 3 in Big Ben District Fires in the 1951 season: i 179 147 Lightning 32 Man Caused Total Acres: 400 Fire Rating: Still very high even though the top of the ground was moistened by recent showers. again this season. Early hunting will probably be best at higher elevations. Feed conditions have been good, with good fawn survival and a good carryover of bucks. In Sierra County, last year's buck kill was highest in years and another good season this year should result from a good carryover of bucks and good fawn survival, Deer are scattered but earlyseason hunting should be best above 4500 feet. Feed has been good and the deer are in good condition. Most deer areas open to public hunting , with very little posted land. In Placer County, an alltime record buck kill last season has been followed by a good carryover of bucks and good fawn survival this year. Hunting will be best above 4500 feet early in the season. Most public and private lands within the National Forest are open. Some lands are posted in the Ice Lakes, Cedars, Snow Mountain area along Highway 40. Officials Survey Area For Parks BOWMAN LAKE, . State officials Monday night reviewed a day-long tour of western Nevada County park sites here after a dinner sponsored by the Nevada Irrigation District. Charles DeTurk, Clyde Newlin, both officials of the Division of Beaches and Parks, State Senator Ronald Cameron, and Assemblyman Paul Lunardi had joined local officials in Nevada City early in the morning. The group first toured the Banner Mt, area and informally dismissed itas a potential and because of pro' bable homesite development up the slope. A visit to Manzanita Diggins, outside Nevada City, kept alive ‘hopes for some kind of directional development there, but state officials were reluctant to indicate whether state or local development was expected. After viewing the proposed site of Jackson Meadow Dam, the Beaches and Parks men offered to assist county and Nevada Irrigation District planners in arranging for recreational use of the lake. It seems doubtful that the state will consider taking the recreational management of the lake front, however. NID officials were told to obtain allthe lake frontage , if possible. They were advised that Davis -Grunsky act funds may be available to aid them in development of the area. The state officials also indicated that county participation in recreational development of the upper areas was needed, Sen. Camerontold county park committee members he hopes to arrange a meeting in the near future where he can bring from other counties recreational experts to aid Nevada County in setting up along-range park development program. Supervisors will be invited to attend. Tour Called A Success NORTHBLOOMFIELD. . .The proposed Malakoff-North Bloomfield State Park passed the visual test Monday as state and county officials toured this historic town and viewed the nearby Malakoff hydraulic diggings. Beaches and Parks Division Chief Charles A. DeTurk compared the hydraulic erosion at Malakoff to the Badlands of South Dakota, and stated the color gradations at Malakoff even outdid the Badlands, DeTurk forecast an annual trek by 500,000 tourists to the Malakoff State Park when and if it is opened. He warned that the state does not have money to proceed on this or other projects, but indicated that if Sen. Ron Cameron's multi-million dollar park bond issue passes at state level next year, Malakoff will be considered along with other projects already in the division's current five-year plan. Third District Beaches and Parks Superintendent Clyde Newlin praised a proposal to include in the state park a trail along the South Fork of the Yuba River. County officials heard the two Beaches and Parks reresentatives and State Senator Ronald Cameron and Assemblyman Paul Lunardi point out the vaired recreational activities available within the tentative park boundaries. Local representatives also emphasized the nearby historical points of interest as wellas access to hunting and fishing. DeTurk and Newlin told representatives of the county coordinating committee appointed by the Board of Trade to promote a park program within the county that the committee must decide how big the proposed park should be. Newlin urged the committee to "think big” because park development history has proved the need for more land than is usually thought necessary prior tothe park's full development. A sub-committee of the county park group composed of John Evens and Dean Thompson working with Nevada County Plannind Director Bill Roberts suggested , ‘for discussion purposes, an area encompassing the water basin of Humbug Creek combined with a strip or block or land along the South Fork of the Yuba River as a tentative park boundary. The sub-committee was talking of an area of about 10,000 to 12,000 acres. An evening discussion at Bowman House seemed to indicate state and local support for tying the Yuba, Malakoff and North Bloomfield area into a single multi purpose recreational park. Sen. Cameron told the group he could envision this proposed park as the prototype of the park of the future in California. He stated its large area and its varied attractions were the basic ingredients being sought in California for park development. Both DeTurk and Newlin indicated that their visit to the site gave them the impression that this particular park was one that would fit into the California park program.
