Review:
Anza-Borrego Desert State Park is located in southern California, within the Colorado Desert. The 600,000-acre state park is the largest in California and was established in 1933 to protect unique and fragile desert ecosystems. The park is framed by rugged ranges of the Bucksnorts, the Santa Rosas, the Jacumba Mountains, the Vallecito Mountains, the Pinyon Mountains, the Anza-Borrego Mountains, and the Carrizo Badlands.
More than 500 miles of roads run through the park, over rocky hills, deep sands, cool streams, and steep hills, some requiring an off-road vehicle. The park includes some of the hottest spots in the country as well as rich 6,000-year old archaeological findings. Visiting the park in the spring will award visitors with a spectacular mosaic of wildflowers. The park is home to many animals, including mountain lions, coyotes, bighorn sheep, and others.
