Hiking Day 1: Araby Trail, Palm Springs
The Araby Trail snakes up the San Jacinto Mountains behind the exclusive cliff-hugging Southridge neighborhood with some of the best views of Bob Hope’s iconic space-age home you are apt to see. Other architectural landmarks include the John Lautner designed Elrod House that served as Sean Connery’s bachelor pad in the 1971 James Bond classic, “Diamonds are Forever.” The well maintained narrow trail includes plenty of switchbacks and a swift elevation gain that results in valley-wide, breathtaking views from the windmills to the Indio Hills, as well as a spectacular vista of the Indian Canyons. You’ll eye some barrel cacti, desert coral and creosote flora along the way. The top of the trail connects with more trails if you want to continue the journey. The Berns, Garstin and Henderson trails drop down the backside of the hill.
Quick facts: 6 miles; moderate hike; 800-foot elevation gain; approximately 4 hours
Insider tips: Dogs and horses are welcome.

Hiking Day 4: Carrizo Canyon, Palm Desert
Hiking Day 4: Carrizo Canyon Ecological Reserve, Palm Desert
When a trail is only available to hikers a few months a year, you need to include it on your hiking list. Due to bighorn lambing (breeding) season, this trail is only open October, November and December. Ironically, the trailhead is a just five- minute drive from the bustling El Paseo shopping district, but you would never know it once you enter the pristine wilderness. The hike begins through a wide sandy wash filled with smoke trees, creosote bushes and desert willows. Once you enter the mouth of the canyon, keep your eye out for the elusive bighorn sheep that blend with nature’s beauty. You have a really good chance of spotting one. Cholla and barrel cactus line the canyon walls; a lone California fan palm is the perfect spot for resting before moving on to explore the falls, which are mostly dry unless we’ve had a recent rainfall. You can scramble the side of the first falls and explore several others to a small palm oasis.
Quick facts: 3 miles; moderate hike; approximately 2 hours
Insider tips: No dogs allowed; closed January through September.

Hiking Day 3: Homestead Trail, Palm Desert
Hiking Day 3: Homestead ‘Cross’ Trail, Palm Desert
This trail that snakes up the side of Shadow Mountain to a giant illuminated cross is thought to be a spiritual trek for some, as well as a quiet spot to meditate above it all. It’s a perfect trail for a sunrise hike with spectacular views from just about anywhere along the way. Along the trail, you’ll see a collection of heart-shaped rocks—find your own and add it to the mountainside. Once you make it to the top, grab a seat on the generous sized rocks and contemplate the climb or life itself and enjoy the wrap-around vistas before heading back down the trail. Attached to the base of the cross is a box containing a notepad and pen in case you want to share any inspirations or read others’ thoughts at this mesmerizing spot.
Quick facts: 3 miles; moderate hike; 700-foot elevation gain; approximately1 hour
Insider tips: This hike starts at the base of the Homme Adams Park which is an off leash dog park. Dogs are welcome on the trail, but must be leashed.

Massive Flooding in Palm Springs on February 14th, 2019!
It was a record-breaking storm that hit the desert, closing many roads and stranding people with no electricity or not being able to get to their destinations. This footage is within walking distance to my house. We were stuck in our neighborhood, with no way out. We were worried the bridge would collapse from the raging river! Thankfully, it didn't!
