Camping at San Jacinto

Question: Which mountain is known as the second highest peak in Southern California? Answer: Mount San Jacinto at 10,834 feet.


Two weeks ago a group of us ventured forth to Palm Springs on a slightly more challenging camping experience. Here are a few quick highlights:

Hiking to our campsite laden with our heavy backpacks...

Enjoying some tasty home-made cookin’...

Shivering in the cold (20-40 degrees Fahrenheit) without the warmth of a campfire...

Hiking in the part-dirt, part-snow trail to the peak of San Jacinto ...

Finding some interesting dug-out tree trunks...

Spending some good quality time with my soon-to-be husband...

What a wonderful and refreshing time it was to be out in nature and to really appreciate the wonders of God's creation. Our God, indeed, is an amazingly creative, artistic, and perfect God.
