California's wildflower super bloom is bigger than it's been in years, thanks to ample rainfall and a particularly wet winter. The massive explosion of poppies covering areas like Walker Canyon and the Santa Monica Mountains can even be seen from space.
Park rangers have had to work overtime to unsnarl traffic jams, keep visitors from trampling wildflowers, and even wave away helicopters, as the colorful floral panoply continues to draw thousands of locals and tourists alike.
