Join me for this short hike through a narrow canyon. There is a seep in this narrow canyon which should provide some bloom (chuparosa), but I'm not expecting a big show. A second optional hike to either the Ocotillo Ridge or the Marsh trail (steep), both about 3/4 mile long will provide a different look as they ascend above the park. Also optional, a soak in one of several hot pools, fed by natural hot springs. Bring your bathing suit and a towel for that. A dressing room is available, use the small private rooms to change and you can shower before and after in the large indoor hot pool. Bring H2O, lunch or snack, sunscreen, camera.
