Wildflower Walk at Rancho Cañada del Oro Open Space Preserve (Morgan Hill)


Details
Meetup RSVPs will open up one week before the event.
Explore the spring wildflowers at Rancho Cañada del Oro with Nabeel Al-Shamma and Divya Shenoy. We'll stroll a couple of miles along and up the Longwall Canyon Trail. On the way we'll see poppies, popcorn flowers, lomatium, purple sanicle, fiddleneck and more.
The hike will be about 4 miles long with 1000 ft. elevation change.
Wear sturdy shoes or hiking boots. Hiking poles are recommended. Bring snacks, a sack lunch, and liquids for the day. Dress in layers. Heavy rain cancels.
There is a shallow creek crossing early in the walk. The stepping rocks are unstable. Hiking poles will help. You many want a change of socks.
RSVP Required. Space is limited. No drop-ins please.
Directions: We’ll meet at the main parking lot, 4289 Casa Loma Rd, Morgan Hill, CA 95037. If full, there is overflow walking just up the road and it is a short walk back to the main lot.
