BARK maintains repeaters on Berryessa Peak 22 miles west of Woodland. The Repeater site is just East of the ridge line at 3057 feet, on the first major ridge of mountains on the West side of the Sacramento Valley. From this location, the repeaters provide coverage roughly from Redding to the North, Turlock to the South, Donner Summit to the East, and portions of the San Francisco Bay Area to the Southwest.
