Hope everyone is doing well on our first warm and sunny weekend in what seems like ages. Time to announce a new field trip! We apologize for the tardiness in posting this but we didn't finalize details until just this weekend. For this field trip, we will be meeting at 9:30am at Ben's Fine Wines and Spirits (this is located next to Bonanza Casino). Address is 4794 N Virginia St, Reno, NV 89506. Once we arrive, we plan to leave at 9:45am sharp to carpool up to the trailhead. It is only about a mile but the road is quite bumpy. We will plan to be out there for a few hours and cover a couple miles.
It should be prime time to see a number of great plants including:
Lithophragma, Astragalus, Plectritis, Lomatium, Phlox, Fritillaria and many others.
Currently, the weather looks clear with temps of 60/40. Recommended items to bring are: water, proper clothing/footwear (check weather!), snacks, notebook/pen, camera/phone for photos.
If you have any questions feel free to shoot us a message!
