Santiago Oaks Regional Park

Lying peacefully in East Orange, California, alongside the Santiago Creek, the 1,269-acre Santiago Oaks Regional Park is a nature lover’s paradise. This secluded refuge offers hikers, bikers, and equestrians the natural charm of mountain vistas, an orange grove, a meandering creek, and a mature forest with many different tree species.

Designs in a Rock

This rock is naturally formed, creating designs.  Often, those white bands or stripes, called veins, are quartz or calcite. Quartz filled the fissures and cracks in rocks. The calcite was formed from the precipitation of calcium carbonate from water running over and through the rocks.
