Catherine Creek and Coyote Wall have become increasingly popular with hikers and mountain bikers, and the springtime months are especially busy, with parking lots filling early. To avoid most of the crowds, try the area between the two above the Rowland Basin. You’ll still get views to the Catherine Creek Arch , the variety of habitat and wildflowers is greater, and the views are just as sweeping. The downside is that, once you have left Sunflower Hill, you will have frequent brushes with poison oak: know how to recognize it, wash the areas that have been touched immediately, wash your clothes as soon as you get home, and think twice about bringing your dog.
