Prairie City State Vehicle Recreation Area

Does anyone know where I can find the radio frequencies for the Prairie City SVRA park rangers? Thanks.

It's the same as the one for Folsom Lake.

858.4875, DCS 115

The DCS code might change...that seems to be the most common one I pick up in Rancho Cordova, but if they use other repeaters, it might change.

Thanks RolnCode3... Hmmm. I live in Folsom and often hear traffic from Folsom Lake. I've never heard them talking from Prairie City. Perhaps I just assumed they were at Folsom Lake. Next time I'm out at Prairie City, I'll listen to the Folsom Lake frequency. What does DSC code stand for?

You won't hear a whole lot of traffic re: Prairie City. Occasionally you'll hear them talking about motorcyclists crashing out there, and asking for medical. That's about it...until Hangtown...then it gets busy out there.
