Join Ranger Nikki on an easy/moderate 2.2-mile hike along San Tan, Stargazer and Moonlight Trails to search for common wildflowers and flowering shrubs of the Sonoran Desert, such as fiddleneck, filaree, brittlebush and globemallow. Another potential flower to see is vibrant Coulter’s Lupine, the County Parks’ March Eco-Blitz Challenge Species of the Month. Learn how to recognize this flower and record your observations on the iNaturalist app to contribute to this citizen science project. Bring your camera and a notebook if you’d like to jot down identification tips. Wear closed-toe shoes and a hat and bring plenty of water. Meet at the main trailhead map kiosk/picnic table.
