Greetings Amazing Nature and Hive community, four months ago I started a new job, the income is great and I like it, at times I’m sent on assignments in other cities, two weeks ago I was sent to Palm Desert.
Here in Palm Desert, I found myself at the top of a mountain looking up at the sun lighted moon and some black crows flying in the sky, at the peak of a mountain under the sun lighted moon.
I turned to the left and I see the city of Palm Desert at the first level of a hiking path. As I catch my breath, I say to myself why am I hiking in Palm Desert on the Santa Rosa, San Jacinto Mountains in 99 degrees temperature? I could not come up with a reason why I’m doing this, but I felt that I needed to, and that I could. Thinking of this and catching my breath my higher self kicked in, which is always watching and guiding me anyway.
OK let's start here with the map of the trail and the major location is on the trail, first thing I noticed is the name, Bump and Grind/Hopalong Cassidy trail. Wow! I think to myself, why would they name this trail after a fictional character in a novel. But I do know that all myths are rooted in truth.
Here is where ground level ends and an ascension into the mountains and trails that goes to Santa Rosa, San Jacinto Mountains, this is a long trail.
As I start the hike, I noticed many trails cutting through the mountains, in this picture here leads to a peak that overlooks the city, this peak is not far from ground level.
I have ascended to a higher level in this picture and I'm feeling good and breathing good I'm no longer hot, I just feel warm and strong, there are many trails that you can see cut in the mountains, I always wonder where do they go I wish I had enough time, I would hike them.
Again, as I ascend higher I see a zigzag path going up a distant mountain.
Continuing from the last picture and turning to the right, you can see the city of Palm Desert and from the next 6 pictures, moving forward I am rotating to the right in a circular motion ending with the same picture with a zigzag mountain trail, just to give you a scope of where I'm at, and the vastness of this desert mountain trail.
Here you can see a trail runner along the ridge of the mountain. Moving to the right.

More trails.
You can see more trail runner along the ridge of the mountain. See the Moon?
More trails and the Moon. Moving to the right.
Back where we started, picture of the zigzag trail on the side of the mountain.
Now I know why I did this Hike, It was for Spiritual Refinement, and it was needed it.
Here is my Facebook video of my hike.

I thank you for your time and your interest in my hike in the desert. Have a good day.
