Join WMG’s River Restoration Biologist Trevor Hare and Executive Director Lisa Shipek to explore Agua Caliente Canyon. This canyon drains over 40 square miles of the Santa Catalina Mountains, supports riparian forests, mud turtles, and leopard frogs, and is a great example of what a desert stream should look like with floodplain access and braided channels.
We will be hiking up Agua Caliente Canyon into the National Forest from the Milagrosa Trailhead. We will meet at the trailhead and hike the one mile to the canyon and start our “canyoneering” creek walk. This creek walk in total will be about six miles round trip. This will be a physically distanced, mask-on event. This event is limited to ten people.
