The wildflower super bloom that brought magnificent swaths of color and hordes of lookie-loos to California is over. But what a show it's been!
The wildflower super bloom that brought magnificent swaths of color and hordes of lookie-loos to California is coming to an end.
The city of Lake Elsinore on Monday declared, with more than a little relief, that the super bloom is nearly over, with the hillsides fading from orange to green as poppies drop their petals and begin to wither."We survived the poppy apocalypse!" the city posted on its Instagram page. "The Super Bloom has been unlike any event we have ever experienced before," Mayor Steve Manos said in a news release."The extreme beauty of our hillsides that drew attention from around the world is now diminishing quickly, and our residents sure are eager for things to get back to normal.", but thousands of people came to Walker Canyon in Lake Elsinore to get a closer look.
Just 4,658 visitors used the Walker Canyon shuttle last weekend, down from 12,062 the prior weekend, city officials said.Antelope Valley California Poppy ReserveThey urged visitors to stay on the trails to avoid crushing the delicate flowers and to leave dogs, bikes and drones at home.Related content
