Big Morongo Canyon (0461a)

Big Morongo Canyon Preserve. The preserve is about 40 miles north of Palm Springs just off CA 62 (well-signed). It is a relatively small park with an interesting combination of former ranch lands, marsh, riparian woods, and desert. It has many short trails through which, when combined, make a nice loop of about 5 miles. The park is managed by the BLM, but was originally started with land bought by The Nature Conservancy.
