Join Ranger Eric to look for scorpions and other nocturnal wildlife on a short hike along the Pipeline Trail. Wildlife may include scorpions, spiders, insects, owls, nightjars, reptiles, and mammals. Please bring your own flashlight or headlamp, ample water and electrolytes, and wear sturdy closed-toe footwear. A blacklight is recommended, but the ranger will have one to point out scorpions with. Restrooms are available at the trailhead.
