Join Ranger Olivia on a hike to look for scorpions and other nocturnal creatures that call McDowell home. Click program title for more details.

We will be looking for wildlife in the dark, so make sure to pack flashlights and blacklights, if you have them, and make sure everything is charged or have extra batteries. We will be hiking along Shallmo Wash for our safari! Shallmo Wash is 
mainly sand/dirt and is rated easy with some rocky/uneven parts. There are restrooms at the trailhead. Please no pets! 


MEETING LOCATION: Shallmo Wash Trailhead at Four Peaks Staging Area.
