ORGANIZATION: San Diego Canyonlands

Gonzales Canyon Picture

Go off trail with San Diego Canyonlands and the Chaparral Lands Conservancy for an event in a rugged, often unseen section of the park.

Come and enjoy the beautiful vistas and inviting shade of old-growth Torrey pines in this special invasive grass removal event. San Diego Canyonlands, in cooperation with the Chaparral Lands Conservancy, will guide volunteers on a more rugged but rewarding hike to an off-trail ridge where native plants are in need of some love. Help remove invasive purple veldt grass (Ehrharta calycina) to give our natives a fighting chance.

Community service hours documentation provided to those who need it. Volunteers under 18 must have a parent or guardian sign a youth waiver to participate in our events. This waiver can be found by clicking here. Wear sturdy shoes or boots and a hat and bring a water bottle and sunscreen. Tools and gloves provided. NO BATHROOMS ON SITE.

For questions or more information on either of these events please contact: Sami Collins at sami@sdcanyonlands.org
