March 12, 2019 (Borrego Springs) – If you’re going wildflower watching in the Anza-Borrego desert area, several sources tell us that the desert floor is now in full bloom—and with wildflower season comes tourists and traffic jams.
Bob Kutscher photographed a line of cars on Saturday, approximately 10 miles east of Borrego along S 22, a hot spot for flowers right now. Flower-loving visitors were parking and hiking into blossoming verbena fields, as vehicles kicked up clouds of dust on a nearby dirt road, West Truckhaven Trail.
A word of caution: the dirt road has soft shoulders, so it’s easy for low-clearance vehicles to get stuck when pulling over to let other vehicles pass.

Thanks!
Bob -- I'm coming back Friday with a photographer friend,
weather permitting. Where do you suggest we go?

I have a Toyota Camry car, so not sure about this....
But thanks for the tip! Makes me wish I had four-wheel drive.
