Welcome spring with a spring in your step! Join Docent Naturalists Mary Brunkhorst, Kate Bauer, and Nick Yatsko to look for early blooming flowers and other messengers of spring in a preserve noted for an impressive display of wildflowers throughout diverse habitats. Your route will include the Blue Oak and Dick Bishop trails. An approximately 800-foot elevation gain will bring you to your lunch spot before you complete this moderately-paced loop hike.
