Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

The hike lasts approximately 2:30 hours including time to stop to take pics & breaks. We'll be hiking on some of my favorite trails through a seasonal springtime desert landscape with the cacti, plants & flowers. We'll be hiking on trails that have amazing views of the desert below & the mountains as we gain elevation. From the trail we'll be able to stop & see the Bob Hope house. Once we reach the top of Smoke Tree Mountain (really a hill at 1,522 feet & the highest point we'll reach on the hike) we'll enjoy amazing 360 degree views of the entire surrounding area. We'll see the windmills, the San Jacinto Mountains to the west, the Little San Bernardino Mountains to the north, Mount San Gorgonio (the tallest mountain in Southern California at 11,503 ft. ), Palm Springs and other desert cities that make up the Coachella Valley. As we head back down we will see Indian Canyons in the distance, ancestral home to the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians that first settled in the area thousands of years ago. Hopefully if we're lucky we'll see some Peninsular Bighorn Sheep.

Duration: 3 hours

Location: Earl Henderson Trail, Palm Springs, Greater Palm Springs, California
