Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Scorpion Safari
June 16 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Free with Park Fee
We’ll be seeking out the three most common types of scorpion native to our region. At the same time, we’ll keep our eyes open for other desert critters that may be around. The trail is rated easy-moderate with some loose rock, uneven surfaces and elevation change.
Please bring plenty of water and wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes. Bring flashlights; black UV lights are optional. NO pets, please.
