Nothing plain about it

The Carrizo Plain National Monument is a unique attraction in California—not just because of its breathtaking, colourful views, but also due to its quiet, isolated feel. Just a few hours from Los Angeles, it covers almost 101,000 hectares along the base of the Temblor Mountains, giving visitors a chance to escape the crowds and experience nature. In spring, wildflowers cover the hills and valley floor, creating the amazing scene pictured here. The area also features other diverse plant species, including several listed as threatened or endangered. Wildlife includes antelope and elk, as well as rare species such as the San Joaquin kit fox, the blunt-nosed leopard lizard, and the giant kangaroo rat.
