Hike: “Rockhouse hike” REPLACED BY RATTLESNAKE CANYON (STRENUOUS) DUE TO FLOODING – FULL (waitlist)

ABDNHA Parking Lot 652 Palm Canyon Drive, Borrego Springs

Leaders: Carmelita Logerwell and Terri Straub

HIKE IS FULL - PLEASE CALL ABDNHA at 760-767-3098 to get on waitlist.
N.B: This hike is replaced by a hike to Rattlesnake Canyon due to flooding.

Hike 8 miles, 1375’ gain. Walk up a beautiful canyon to where it ends at an interesting 25 foot dry waterfall. Have fun figuring out the best way up the canyon, as it is quite wide, and there are many different routes you could take, and many rocks to step up and around. But none of them are too difficult. No dirt driving, park right off the road. Max 15 people. Meet at ABDNHA by 7:50. Bring lunch, snacks, and water. Call 760-767-3098 to reserve.

Nature Journaling (Easy)

Nature Journaling (Easy)

ABDNHA Parking Lot 652 Palm Canyon Drive, Borrego Springs

Leaders: Pat Matthews and Selden McKee, ABDNHA Volunteers

This activity repeats on the first Tuesdays of the month to explore nature journaling in the ABDNHA garden and in the field until noon.  No experience necessary—just a curiosity about the natural world. Participants will need a small, unlined journal, a pencil, an eraser, a micron pen, colored pencils or a compact watercolor set, and a chair. We will be outdoors, so a sun hat, water, and a snack are recommended. Meet in the parking lot of ABDNHA. No charge; call the Nature Center to reserve.
