Event Details

-

How many Utah spiders can you photograph in 7 days? Celebrate Antelope Island State Park's annual Spider Fest by photographing spiders you see anywhere in the state of Utah from July 22-28th, and adding them to iNaturalist.

All iNaturalist observations of arachnids made in Utah from July 22-28, 2024 will be automatically be added to the BioBlitz project. No matter where in Utah you are, your spider photos will contribute to records of statewide arachnid diversity. Last year, Utahns recorded over 68 species of spiders during the BioBlitz. We can't wait to see what you find this year!

How to take part:
  • Photograph spiders you find in Utah July 22-28th
