The Boo Hoff Trail

I decided to hike the Boo Hoff Trail in La Quinta, CA in late February. The trail begins at The Cove trailhead, which is the jumping off point for a network of several other trails, such as the Cove to Lake Trail, and the Bear Creek Oasis, along with some unmarked ones. There is a free parking lot, restrooms, and a shade structure there. 

Cattle Crest and Rabbit Run from Quail Hill

From the Quail Hill parking area in Irvine I set out to enjoy the Bommer Canyon Open Access Day. Registration was not required, and it was free to park at the trailhead here, unlike some of the other nearby trailheads. Hope this guide is helpful for planning your hikes on Bommer Canyon Open Access Day.

Chiquito Falls

Here is a guide to Hiking to Chiquito Falls near Lake Elsinore, along with the San Juan Loop Trail, and San Juan Falls. One thing to note about the hike to Chiquito Falls is that it is less technical to reach it than other waterfall hikes, while being longer, with more elevation gain. A hike here does not require Class 2+3 scrambling over large boulders, such as in Black Star Canyon. 

Bolsa Chica Wetlands

Follow along as I hike through Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve. I will share where to park, the costs involved, and helpful tips for a successful visit to this unique travel destination in Orange County, California.

Dana Point Harbor Hike

Follow me for a scenic 3 mile hike around Dana Point Harbor in Orange County, CA past the boats and ships docked by Baby Beach, and the Ocean Institute. It's an east hike, that just about anyone might enjoy, if they love boats, and nautical stuff, as much as I do.
