Join Ranger Olivia on a hike to look for scorpions and other nocturnal creatures that call Usery 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 Lost Sheep Trail for our safari! This trail is rated easy with some rocky/uneven parts, and we will be doing an out and back hike of about 2 miles. There are restrooms and water at the Nature Center. Please be sure to bring plenty of water, wear close-toed shoes, and please no pets!

PLEASE NOTE: Outdoor summer programs may be canceled on short notice due to severe weather, including extreme heat events. The Maricopa County Parks website (www.maricopa.gov/parks) is the most accurate resource for verifying the program’s current status. Please check the program listing online before coming to the park.
