Here are some pics from the top before we started our decent.
We had a solid 10 miles to go after these kodak moments

Willis Palms Trail

Well Saturday me and Andrew went on a Hike/Run, the trail was 3 miles but we got lost and ended up climbing up some sort of canyon. It was until we got to a certain point that we relized that this was not part of the trail and went back. It made it a little bit more fun. The actual trail is a great run and you can see the whole valley.





It was at this point we were in the wrong direction and all the sudden we are mountain climbing.



We now realized we must have missed somthing and started our decent.


Back on track..



This was super fun and the best part was that the trail book we got this hike from said that this was considerd easy and we still got lost. I can't wait to see what the hard trails are like.
