SUMMARY:Beginning Birding: Borrego Springs Resort (Easy) - FULL (waitlist)
DESCRIPTION:Leaders: Tom Keffer and Lee Christie\, ABDNHA Volunteers \nIf you can’t tell a sparrow from a flycatcher from a wren\, this trip is for you! Instead of racking up species\, we will slow down and take more time with each individual bird\, learning how to identify them. We will be carrying a scope\, so you’ll get a good look at what distinguishes a bird. 1.5 miles\, no elevation gain\, easy trail. Meet in the ABDNHA parking lot by 8:50 am.  Bring snacks\, binoculars\, and water. Call 760-767-3098 to reserve. Limit: 10.

SUMMARY:Hike: "Rockhouse hike" REPLACED BY RATTLESNAKE CANYON (STRENUOUS) DUE TO FLOODING - FULL (waitlist)
DESCRIPTION:Leaders: Carmelita Logerwell and Terri Straub \nHIKE IS FULL – PLEASE CALL ABDNHA at 760-767-3098 to get on waitlist. \nHike 8 miles\, 1375’ gain. Walk up a beautiful canyon to where it ends at an interesting 25 foot dry waterfall.

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.

SUMMARY:Hike: Hornblende Canyon (Moderate) - FULL (waitlist)
DESCRIPTION:Leader: Rachel Rench\, ABDNHA Volunteer \nMeet at the ABDNHA parking lot at 8:00 am to carpool to a parking area South of Blair Valley. Parking is limited there\, so we need to take as few cars as possible. The hike up Hornblende Canyon is fairly flat in the beginning\, but you’ll need to be able to navigate a few small dry waterfalls until we reach a 40-foot-high dry waterfall and our turnaround point. We’ll eat lunch here and then return the way we came. This hike will be limited to 15 people. Call the Nature Center to reserve.
