A crocodile-shaped granite outcrop protruding from Folsom Lake shoreline — dramatic when water levels are low. Great for compositions combining sculpted rock, textured shoreline, and lake reflections. Best at sunrise or sunset for warm sidelighting and long shadows; late summer/fall low water exposes more of the formation. Accessible via short shore hike from nearby parking; no entry fee but bring water and sun protection. Weekdays and early mornings minimize visitors.
