WILDFLOWER SEASON IS HERE!

Arizona's 2011 spring wildflower season got off to a slow start, but thanks to some much needed rain in the last couple of weeks followed by warmer temperatures, the show has begun.
Here's a couple of links to local-based hikers who update about wildflower sightings regularly:

ARIZONENSIS—great resource for identifying plants, animals and geology.

Also, search this blog for "wildflowers" for a selection of desert hiking trails known for colorful and abundant blooms.

Happy trails!
