This section of the Phoenix Sonoran Preserve is exploding with Mexican Poppies. The Trail head is on the South Side of the road, at the intersection of Carefree Highway and 7th Ave. Once you pass through the gate, head West up the trail. The flowers will start coming in to view after 1/2 mile or so (I did not have my GPS today)

Conversely, this is the most extensive amount of poppies I have ever seen in this particular area of North Phoenix. Last weeks 1"+ rainfall should insure they continue to blossom and flourish, well into Spring. When driving East on CF highway before 7th Ave, peer off to the South, the hills are covered in a thick blanket of fresh blossoms.
