Diamond Valley Lake If you want to see spring flowers in San Diego, you should visit this trail. The park is currently in full bloom with a variety of colors including red, yellow, and purple. However, because many people gather there, you should go early in the morning.

Indianhead peak is one of the most challenging hikes I've ever done. Although this mountain was definitely not for the faint of heart, the view from the summit was absolutely breathtaking. Would I recommend it? Well, it's hard to say. ⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #adirondacks #adventure #amazing #anzaborrego #anzaborregodesert #anzaborregodesertstatepark #borregosprings #california #committoyourjourney #desert #getoutside #havefun #hike #hiking #indianhead #mountains #socal #summit #thedesert #travel (at Anza-Borrego Desert State Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp-zsd1PUp9/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Iron Mountain Trail Hiking in the rain turned out to be more exciting than I had anticipated. The sound of raindrops was soothing and the fragrance of flowers was even more intense. Normally, I dislike the crowded Iron Mountain trail, but hiking in the rain was a refreshing change.

Unforgettable camping trip in Joshua Tree National Park! It was amazing to enjoy a cocktail next to the campfire all night long, surrounded by a shower of Milky Way stars. If you can wake up early in the morning, you should try hiking to Inspiration Peak for sunrise. You won't regret it. ⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #desert #desertlife #desertvibes #highdesert #hiking #joshuatree #joshuatreeairbnb #joshuatreeclimbing #joshuatreehiking #joshuatreelife #joshuatreenationalpark #joshuatreenp #joshuatreenps #joshuatrees #joshuatreesunset #joshuatreeu2 #landscapephotography #cocktailhiker (at Josua Tree National Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpdgDdHvZu_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Whale Peak This is a really awesome hike. Whale peak was great with a lot of scrambling, and many many cactus. However, the views when you reach the summit are spectacular.
