Blixseth Park (Palm Springs)

Continuing with some photos from our visit to Palm Springs earlier this year, here are a couple of photos from Blixseth Mountain Park. It was classic desert scenery.
I was glad I was there in March as it was already quite hot by my standards; I can't imagine hiking here in the middle of the summer. I visited this park while my wife and son were watching professional tennis, and it's my Scenic Sunday entry for the week.

    Looks like a great place to hike -- like being in another world! Probably much to hot for me, too!! Beautiful blue skies! Hope you have a good day, Al!

    It looks so barren, but I bet there's more life than meets the eye!

    When we were there, it was February...and agreed, I wouldn't want to be there in the summer months! Nice photographs as always -
