- SAN DIEGO NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM, San Diego Nature Hike: Anza-Borrego Desert State Park (Rainbow & Box Canyons Loop) Let’s enjoy a challenging desert hike together, that includes dry waterfalls and amazing landscapes. Starting out in a sandy wash, we will encounter dry waterfalls as a spectacular desert canyon surrounds us. Swirled and foliated marine sediments, sliced with pegmatite and other granitic dikes and veins, give this canyon its name. Along with the geology, Rainbow Canyon is outstanding for its variety of vegetation as well as several raptor and wood-rat nests. This is considered a difficult hike, both for its length and having to scale several dry waterfalls. This is a difficult 8-mile hike with an elevation change of 1150 feet including some strenuous challenges. www.sdnhm.org/calendar/ + nature hikes
