Botanic Garden | Greet the Day Stroll
Activity Navigation
Summary
Mornings are a perfect time to enjoy the uncrowded trails and the quiet serenity of the Garden. Join Scot Pipkin, the Garden’s new Director of Education and Engagement, on a walk through the Garden’s trails to greet the day.
Description
As we climb trails, we will take breaks to catch our breath and take in views or observe plants, birds, and other wildlife. Instructor Scot Pipkin was born and raised in San Diego, California. After attending UCLA and receiving a degree in Geography with an emphasis in biogeography, he has spent his career acquiring and sharing an understanding of the natural world that emphasizes the interconnections that surround us. This work has allowed him to inhabit some of the most beautiful and ecologically rich places in the Southwest, including Yosemite, the redwoods of the San Mateo Coast, Saguaro National Park in Arizona, and the Lincoln National Forest in New Mexico. From 2012-2016, he served as the Public Access Manager for Tejon Ranch Conservancy, leading wildflower and natural history tours through the San Joaquin Valley, Antelope Valley, and Tehachapi Mountains.
