Natural History Wanderings

Anza-Borrgo Desert Natural History Association posted a new wildflower report:

Smuggler canyon This lower part is a lot better to hike. The canyon walls are just high enough to provide some shade for the flowers. The wash looks dry and dead, but not so, it’s filed with insects on the Lavender and Chuparosa. Both are looking healthy and we haven’t seen any Chuparosa this good, in a couple of months. The first part, up the Smuggler Canon Wash, is very easy on a sandy wash. It takes about one hour until you reach some small boulders.
