Cañón del Alacrán

Cañón del Alacrán (Goat Canyon) is one of the many tributary canyons that feed into the Cañón de los Laureles (Scorpion Canyon) that begins in Tijuana and ends in the United States just north of the Mexico-US border. It is watershed sub-basin, part of the 1,750 square miles Tijuana River Estuary watershed that spans the two countries. The Tijuana River National Estuarine Research Reserve (TRNERR) is tasked with cleaning up the river estuary and looking after the health of the native flora and fauna that thrive in the watershed wetland, and one of the main approaches of their Watershed Program is to promote local development projects amongst the network of vulnerable communities living alongside the canyons that feed into the river estuary.
