Riparian habitat:
The staff sent me in the right direction. Finding the site was trivial itself to reach. While the Rio Barosa trailhead
is out of the way, once there all you must do
is park your car, then hike up river.
Hiking up a watercourse is always a pleasure. Along the way, Beth and I enjoyed the lovely wild flowers (such as this
orchid, Dactylorhiza elata), reptiles, the scenery, and simply the pleasure of being outside.
And not having a bunch of Christs hanging over our heads.
