When wildflowers bloom SaddleBrooke hikers take to the hills of Catalina State Park to find over 40 varieties of flowers. The fields of Mexican gold poppies were highlighted with white chicory, pink owl clover, purple scorpion weed, yellow janusia and purple desert lupine. It was delightful to discover an early blooming mariposa lily and a red cardinal. This was a colorful and sunny hike that lifted our spirits. Tim Butler and Elisabeth Wheeler were the guides. Photographers were Barb Wilder, Howie Fagan and Elisabeth Wheeler.
