Walk Like a Tortoise Educational Walk at Brown’s Ranch Trailhead
Join us as we learn about and look for signs of the Sonoran Desert tortoise. This leisurely walk on the Jane Rau Trail will give us plenty of time to tell stories about the tortoise. We will talk about their history, how they survive, how they play host to so many other animals and the research that the McDowell Sonoran Conservancy is doing with them.
