Natural History Wanderings

We never thought it would be explicitly necessary to state that it is illegal to land a helicopter in the middle of the fields and begin hiking off trail in the Antelope Valley Poppy Reserve, but recent events have shown that we were wrong. When our law enforcement staff attempted to contact the couple, they ran back to their helicopter and fled. Due to budget constraints, our delivery of flying patrol trucks has been delayed, so the officer was unable to pursue the violators. The photo was taken by a nearby park visitor.
