Join Ranger Nikki on a moderate hike to search for and learn about a variety of flowering plant life, including wildflowers, shrubs and cacti. *If you would like to learn how to document via iNaturalist, please download the free app at home and register with a username prior to arrival. Create a SciStarter account first. Download the INaturalist app and create an INaturalist account using the same email address. Then add your INaturalist username to your SciStarter account in “Info & Settings” where noted. Then, your participation in INaturalist projects and events, including the Phoenix Area City Nature Challenge, will count towards SciStarter’s collective goal of One Million Acts of Science this April!
