Newell Open Space — Attraction in American Canyon

It’s a beautiful breath taking landscape with lots of rolling hills with open spaces. It has groups of trees here and there on the ridge, but majorly of the trails on hill sides are bare where the view to the 360 degrees of scenery are wide opened.

Such as Black and brown bears, bobcats, coyotes and others, It’s preserve for open space that I read in the trail which consists of 640 Area of land was perilously owned by The Newells family.
