- ELEPHANT SEAL ROOKERY
 The Northern Elephant Seal is an extraordinary marine mammal. It spends eight to ten months a year in the open ocean, diving 1000 to 5000 feet deep for periods of fifteen minutes to two hours, and migrating thousands of miles, twice a year, to its land based rookery for birthing, breeding, molting and rest. The Piedras Blancas rookery, on Highway 1 seven miles north of San Simeon on the California Central Coast, is home to about 15,000 animals. www.elephantseal.org

"Los Osos is pretty rad. A spread out flow bowl with hips, bowled corners, banks, and a pyramid with rails. Steel coping set well and grinds good. Two other bowls with steel coping ranging from 3 to 6 feet deep. Also a pool style kidney bowl with pool coping 9 ft deep end and 5 ft shallow. Coping is good and shallow end is fairly steep. Overall a super fun park. 7 out of 10. They charge $2 and they require helmets and pads!! Fun park though! And the skate attendant was cool." |
