If you don’t stop and look around once in awhile, you could miss [the wildflowers].

We’re currently experiencing the ‘Superbloom’, an event that occurs when extraordinary amounts of rain fall on the desert, causing flowers to bloom at unprecedented levels.

This ‘Superbloom’ is a direct result of ‘El Niño’ and has affected the entire Mojave/Colorado Desert region. With the last occurring in 2005, and the next potentially never occurring… you can’t miss it!

This coming weekend, 20160402, I intend to explore Death Valley in search of the massive fields of desert wildflowers that are currently in bloom as a result of this unusual amount of precipitation.
