Butterfly Walk:

Mitchell Canyon Visitors Center and Trailhead
Mt. Diablo State Park, Walnut Creek
Saturday, May 14th, 2016
10:00am – 1:00pm | $6 (per car – exact change)

Join David Morris on a one mile, three hour walk up Mitchell Canyon to Red Road looking for butterflies and wildflowers, returning via Globe Lilly Trail. With luck, walkers should see up to 12 different butterflies, including Common Ringlet, Mylitta Crescent, various Blues, Checkerspots and Swallowtails. Dress in layers and bring a lunch or snacks, liquids and binoculars. Be prepared for mud, ticks and poison oak. Steady rain cancels.
