5 Peak Challenge – Mission Trails Regional Park

We're rounding the corner into week 5 of the COVID quarantine. So, in a perfect combination of extra time and nostalgia for the outdoors, I'm back here and ready to write some blog posts. I completed the 5 peak challenge in San Diego's Mission Trail's Regional Park back on February 16th (those fantastic before COVID …

Hiking to Ka’Ena Point, Oahu

It's the northwestern-most point on the island of Oahu, and for only a short drive away from Honolulu the difference in the crowd is like night and day. My dad and I had rented a car for the weekend since he didn't need to go into work until Monday. The day before that we had …

It's the ones we underestimate that can teach us the most.

Hiking Makapu’u Point, Oahu

My dad and I were in Waikiki while he was on a business trip and had just rented a car for our last weekend there. We wanted to drive around and see more of the island than we normally could just taking Uber or walking around. That morning we started it off strong by going …

Hiking Mauna Kea, Hawai’i

I've written before on the amazing sunsets and star gazing at the Mauna Kea visitor center, but there's nothing that can beat hiking to the top. Mauna Kea is one of the volcanoes that helped form the Big Island of Hawai'i. However, its last eruption was around 2600 BC. Mauna Kea sits at an elevation …

Arbor Hills Nature Preserve, Plano Texas

Finding a spot to hike in North Texas can be a little difficult. Part of my family recently moved from Southern California to McKinney County (just North of Dallas) and it's definitely been a change. The area totally lacks online content pointing people in the direction of local parks and nature preserves. One post isn't …

Hiking Otay Mountain

I found this place by total luck and after hiking it a couple of weeks ago it quickly became the best San Diego hike I've done by far. This route is primarily used by cars and dirt bikes. We saw a bit of vehicle traffic ourselves, but I didn't have a problem. The hike comes …

Hiking Mt. McGinty

Balancing a good workout, gorgeous views, and minimal time commitment, these 4.8-mile steep trail is definitely a San Diego point of interest, and despite its proximity to the city of San Diego, it remains a low trafficked hike.​ Finding the trailhead, however, is half the struggle. We looked online and the address given to us …

Hiking Iron Mountain

Located in Romona California, this peak is definitely one for San Diego locals to check off their list. Not only does this peak offer a decent work out from its 1,000ft elevation gain and a total of 6.4 miles out and back, but here you can find some incredibly unique landscapes and one of the …

Split between the main reserve and the extended reserve, Torrey Pines has - in total - around 4.6 miles of beautiful trails and gorgeous overlook spots to explore. In addition, the park is home to the historic Torrey Pines Lodge, a gift of philanthropist Ellen Browning Scripts who wanted “the scenic beauty and educational and …
