Get Outside and Explore
I headed off towards the Bear Creek Oasis from the Cove Trailhead in La Quinta, CA in February. Winter and spring are the best times to visit here. There is a large parking area, and is a popular place to hike. There are plenty of signs, picnic tables, and a restroom here at the trailhead.
The Salton Sea is a peculiar place. Much of it has been desolate since it fell out of favor, since its hey day. It was once a vacation destination for the rich and famous, and would go on to become an ecological disaster, a eutrophic lake, where fish can't survive.
These trails are a lot of fun for just about anyone who loves hiking.

The winter rains have begun, and new growth has just begun to emerge. The area is cool and misty during this time of year, which makes for perfect trail running weather. I love my country and I love getting outside. So what better than a hike and a trail run from Camino De Los Ramblas onto the flagpole on Patriot Trail.
