Ecological reserves: Mirage Trail.

Existing law authorizes the Department of Fish and Game, with the approval of the Fish and Game Commission, to, among other things, maintain, use, and administer land suitable for the purpose of establishing ecological reserves. Existing law authorizes the Department of Fish and Game to construct facilities and conduct programs in ecological reserves it selects to provide natural history education and recreation if those facilities and programs are compatible with the protection of the biological resources of the reserve. This bill would require the department to open the Mirage Trail within the Magnesia Spring Ecological Reserve to hiking and biking recreational activities.
