Join Ranger Kevin for a 2.7-mile hike along the North Trail. We’ll discover how some of the most common desert trees are related to each other. We’ll also dig into some of the truly fabulous adaptations that allow them to thrive in a punishing desert climate. The trail is rated easy with few rocky or unstable surfaces and little elevation change. Please wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes and bring plenty of water. Hats and sunscreen are also highly recommended. NO pets, please. MEETING LOCATION: North Trailhead.
Limit 20 participants. To register, please call the McDowell Nature Center at (602) 506-2930 ext. 3 with your name, number in your party, and phone number. If you find you cannot attend a program after you have registered, please call the Nature Center ASAP so we may contact those on the waiting list. Registration for this program will close on Thursday, 4/6/23.
