2 vegetation zones; Littoral & arid. 0.7 Square Miles. Easy hike with some of the trail hiking over rocks.

Palo Santo Tree "Palo Santo" is Spanish for "holy wood,"
The tree is without leaves most of the year until the rainy season, which then the leaves appear & last for a few weeks,
then fall off again to protect the tree through the dry season. Plao Santo wood is known from ancient times for
healing & religious rituals. Even after the tree has died the wood still produces fragrant resin & is burned like incense.
