Mother’s Day Hike - Saguaro Blossoms for Mom - Usery Park
Usery Mountain Regional Park
Moms love flowers (especially on Mother’s Day!), so take your mom up the Wind Cave Trail to view the beautiful saguaro blossoms along the way. Halfway up the trail, Ranger B will be at “the stairs” to give a junior ranger badge to each kid who hikes with their mom up to that point. Moms will get a free bracelet. The stairs are located less than a mile up the Wind Cave Trail, with an elevation gain of about 400 feet. Please bring water, hats, and closed-toe shoes.
