Natural History Wanderings

Desert Wildflower Reports – DesertUSA has the following wildflower report for Highway 245 between Visalia and Kings Canyon – Sequoia National Parks

drive on SR-245 and encountered the most beautiful array of wildflowers in a natural setting that just took our breath away and made us smile. The route starts in Visalia, CA, where you will head east out of town on SR 198 for just a few miles until you come to the SR-198/SR-245 intersection. Then you take SR-245 north to and through Woodlake Junction. You just continue following the SR-245 signs through the foothills and long sweeping turns. The road continues to wind and twist. Stick with it all the way to Highway 180 and you will be rewarded with miles of lovely wildflowers. If you’d like, at Highway 180 turn left and you will probably see even more wildflowers.
