A favorite place to explore cacti and other natural desert features in Scottsdale is the Mayo Clinic Nature Trail . The trail is kid-friendly, and all the vegetation are labeled and explained. It is almost as good as the Botanical Gardens, but unlike the Gardens, it is free! Lost Dog Trailhead is also another great place to explore. Unfortunately, by the time we arrived at Lost Dog Trailhead today, the girls were too tired and hungry to hike. I hope to go back again this week!
