About
the hike
Hike through the historic and beautiful Mead Ranch in the hills northeast of Napa to see a rare treat: its vernal pools and wildflowers. With the return of rain, these pools come alive with ephemeral blooms found only in vernal pool ecosystems, offering a fleeting and remarkable glimpse into one of California’s most unique natural habitats.
