Palm Desert, CA

| Entrance Toll Booth |
A beautiful day for a hike, the sun is shining and warm with just a touch of breeze. Paid our $14 entrance fee at Indian Canyons Agua Caliente Indian Reservation where you "walk in the foot steps of their ancestors". Here's the link if you'd like to learn more:

| Palm trees, mountain and snow capped peaks - just beautiful |
We didn't see the endangered Peninsular Big Horn Sheep, mule deer or any other wild animals. But we did see a few lizards and lots of hummingbirds.
They have over 20 well-marked trails with all difficulty levels. Some are for hiking or equestrian only, others are shared. For those of you who love to hike, this is a place you must visit.

| Tony and Mieke are ready for some serious hiking |

| This feeder was very popular with the hummingbirds |
 |
| This one has a short tail - wonder if that's normal? |

| Love to see a little color in the desert |
This short hike is preparing us for the longer hike tomorrow. Stay tuned.
Nice place for a practice hikeE
ReplyDeleteI'm beginning to think that practice hike wasn't such a good idea. Two days in the row of hiking is exhausting. Bet I sleep great tonight
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great place for a hike. Nice photos!
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining my blog. It's nice to have new visitors. The hiking was just the way I like it .. varied terrain and just a little challenging without being overwhelming.
