Bautista Creek - National Wild & Scenic River
Riverside County, California
Overview
Bautista Creek drains the San Jacinto Mountains, and provides an important migration corridor for birds passing from the desert to the valley. The creek and its surrounding riparian area shelters endangered arroyo toads, southwestern willow flycatchers, Quino checkerspot butterfly, the slender-horned spineflower and many other sensitive species. Famed explorer Juan Bautista de Anza followed the route through what is now Bautista Canyon Road to reach San Francisco, and this is a designated part of a National Historic Trail.
