... Some may be wondering about the word Sespe. The Sespe Formation is "a widespread fossiliferous sedimentary geologic unit in southern and south central California in the United States." The area incorporates the Sespe Wilderness area, the Sespe (California) condor sanctuary and 61 mile long Sespe creek. George lived close to that area prior to moving to Ventura ...
The Sespe Wilderness was long known as the most primitive area in North America, they stopped using that description not too long ago, although I don't know why. Perhaps they've started considering bears as civilized residents. The Sespe is where they take the troublesome bears when they're removed from Yosemite and other such places in California ... because there is no encroachment from man. That's also why they chose it as the place to bring the California Condor back from extinction. Its the bird in the Sespe logo, the adult condors have a 10 foot wingspan. When we moved to Fillmore there were only a few Condors remaining alive. It used to be you only saw them in the sky above Fillmore, now you see them all over California. They're back from extinction. My children grew up hiking the Sespe.
