Palm Springs to the rescue, the trees here are hairy.

This place with many hairy trees is Indian Canyons in Palm Springs, a nature reserve. This tree is actually a kind of palm tree, called fan palm, and the hair on the tree, look carefully, it turns out to be the dried leaves of the palm tree! It's like a Hawaiian girl in a grass skirt, isn't it! 🤍 ▫️Recommended route Because it was already quite hot when we went, it was about 33 degrees that day, so I only chose a hiking route in the park, called Andreas Canyon Trail, which is along the creek. I accidentally fell into the creek in the middle of the photo. The whole journey is only 1.2 miles. The first half is along the creek and palm trees. The second half can see the canyon. It is a loop. The scenery is super good! 🤍 ▫️Recommended season & time We walked for about an hour with the photos. Although there are many shelters in the first half, the big sun in California is still very hot, so I suggest going in the morning. In addition, I don't recommend going in summer. It's too hot there in summer. Finally, you must drink more water and sunscreen!

Palm Springs, California. North Lykken Trailheads. Awesome hiking opportunities in greater Palm Springs area. Very walkable town with mid century architecture and lots of shops and restaurants.

Palm Springs became famous in the 1900s, as a favorite retreat for John Muir and his daughters early in the century, and developing into a refuge for glamorous movie stars into the 1930s. Now, it’s no less fabulous, but has a more robust tourism industry accessible to all! While in Palm Springs, be sure to spend an early morning wandering through the massive, “furry” palm trees in Andreas Canyon (part of the Indian Canyons). The light is especially beautiful early in the morning, and it’s nice to be able to explore the area before the crowds start to arrive around 9:30/10:00am. Afterward, stop at the Moorten Botanical Garden to wander the really beautifully curated maze of exotic desert plants and cacti. You also won’t want to miss some of the famous Palm Springs mid-century modern design and architecture — my favorite spots are the Parker Hotel, the Palm Springs Architecture Museum, Palm Springs Art Museum’s Architecture and Design Center, Twin Palms Estates, Coachella Valley Savings and Loan, Elrod House Interior, and the Tramway Gas Station. Be sure to wander the main street to check out the beautiful mid-century home design shops and funky clothing boutiques, and enjoy the diverse food scene. On your way out, stop at San Gorgonio Pass for a photo-op with a sea of windmills! #awesomepic
