This page is under construction. This page contains descriptions for good places to go hiking and camping in the Spring. Some of these places are suitable for more than one season and so will appear on more than one page.
Spring is the best time to see our wildflowers.
Many of our desert areas will provide spectacular displays if conditions are right, e.g. a good, solid freeze in January followed by light and frequent rainfall in the Spring. 1995 was a great year. 1996 and 1997 were too dry. The Antelope Valley Poppy Reserve is a great place to go see the California Poppy bloom in early April. The Poppy Reserve, located in the Antelope Valley north of LA on Interstate 14, is part of the Angeles District of the California State Park System .
