I am a Kansas City native and moved here in 2011. I joined the hiking club and fell in love with our mountains. The CVHC has made such a difference in my life. Leading hikes allows me to meet so many people and share the joy of a day spent outdoors. Between the San Jacinto, Joshua Tree, our valley, Idyllwild, and Mecca there is a lot to discover in the Palm Springs area. If not on the trail, I am most likely cooking or playing canasta or mahjong.

MURRAY PEAK LOOP FROM VONS

Hike this popular hike by parking just East of the Vons parking lot off of Hwy 111 and Gene Autry. This is the steepest way up to the peak and another mile added for fun.  After topping out at picnic tables instead of going back the same way, keep going and sweep around the back side of the peak and loop in to the original trail.  Bonus points!!

7.6  Miles with Elevation gain of 2200 ft.
