Huckleberry Botanic Preserve

I hiked in Huckleberry in mid-May on an adult Girl Scout hike (thanks Libro!) and it was spectacular! This hike was definitely at the upper edge of my current ability but it was well worth it. We hiked about 2.5 miles down into the canyon and along the stream, up and down the hills. There's a guide to the diverse and sometimes rare plant life - well worth doing. The trail is lovely and there are amazing views of the surrounding hills. This was a push for me because of the up and down and up and down. I was also with a group of women who are in way better shape than I am and our pace was on the fast side for me. But I kept up and had a great time, even if I was wiped when we finished. I definitely want to do this hike again soon! Note: because it's a preserve there are no dogs. Sorry, Isis!
