This Saturday, December 12th, join, California State Parks biologist, Mike Puzzo for a guided hike in Anza Borrego State Park. $45 / $35 for ABF Members; Advance registration is required, no exceptions. This hike requires a shuttle.

Want to go on a serious adventure in Anza-Borrego but don’t know the area well enough to go it alone? Not for the feeble-legged or the weak-hearted, Mike’s Hikes are extremely strenuous treks through difficult terrain. All participants should be very experienced hikers, accustomed to full day, 10+ mile strenuous hikes. Each person should be prepared with their own essentials- water, food, clothing… the works. Due to the difficulty of these hikes, the hike leader reserves the right to turn a participant away if deemed unprepared.

The first mile of this 8-mile route is the hardest, steepest incline, and then the route eases out to a gradual incline up to our high point, with a cross-country desert traverse. Total elevation will be around 2,500 feet. More information coming soon.

Meet: Yaqui Pass pullout. More information will be provided closer to event date.

Bring: AT LEAST 1 gallon of water, lunch, snacks, gloves, sturdy clothing and footwear, and anything you need to be prepared for a day-long, strenuous trek.

This event is sponsored by Anza-Borrego Foundation, the nonprofit partner of Anza-Borrego Desert State Park. All proceeds go back into education and outreach programs.
