The combination of a fascinating local history, noteworthy geological formations, and a variety of plant and animal life make the “History of the Red Rocks of Black Star Canyon” a hike not to be missed. During a casually-paced 2.5-mile walk along a fairly flat, sandy, streambed trail, well-informed docents will discuss the diverse flora and fauna on display, the plate tectonics at work underfoot, and the human history of OC Parks’ beautiful Black Star Canyon Wilderness Park.
