Big Sur: Discovering California's Hidden Gem
Big Sur: Discovering California's Hidden Gem

As someone who has spent a significant amount of time exploring the Golden State, I have had the privilege of discovering the diverse range of destinations California has to offer. However, if I had to recommend one spot for a must-do road trip in California, Big Sur would be it, without hesitation.

Located halfway between San Francisco and Los Angeles, Big Sur is a 90-mile stretch of coastline that runs from Carmel to San Simeon. This region is home to some of the most spectacular natural beauty in the state, including rugged cliffs, secluded coves, and miles of unspoiled beaches. It's also home to charming seaside towns and world-class hiking trails, making it the perfect destination for those looking for a mix of outdoor adventure and relaxation.

The first stop on any Big Sur itinerary should be the famous Bixby Bridge. This iconic structure spans a dramatic gorge and offers some of the most breathtaking views of the coast. Visitors can pull over at one of the many scenic overlooks to take in the natural beauty and snap a photo of the bridge.

Next on the list is McWay Falls. This waterfall cascades down a sheer cliff into the Pacific Ocean and is accessible via a short hike from Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park. Visitors can hike to the beach and take in the views of the waterfall and the ocean, or simply enjoy the natural beauty of the park.

Pfeiffer Beach is another must-see destination in Big Sur. This secluded beach is known for its purple sand and sea stacks, which are natural rock formations that have been carved by the ocean. Visitors can enjoy the beach, explore the tide pools and take in the natural beauty of the place.

Big Sur also offers some of the best hiking in California. The region is home to several state parks, including Andrew Molera State Park and Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park, which offer miles of hiking trails through redwood forests, along the coast and to hidden waterfalls. Visitors can also hike the famous Coast Ridge Trail, which offers panoramic views of the coast and the ocean.

For those looking to indulge in some relaxation, Big Sur is home to several luxurious resorts and spas. Visitors can indulge in a spa day at one of the many luxury resorts, such as the Post Ranch Inn, or simply relax on one of the many sandy beaches.

Big Sur is not only a place of natural beauty but also a place of rich history. The region is home to several historic sites, including the Henry Miller Memorial Library, which is dedicated to the life and work of the famous author who lived in Big Sur for several years. Visitors can also visit the Esalen Institute, a spiritual retreat center that has hosted some of the most famous thinkers, writers, and activists of the 20th century.

In conclusion, Big Sur offers the ultimate California road trip destination. With its rugged cliffs, secluded coves, unspoiled beaches, charming towns, world-class hiking trails, and luxurious resorts, it's the perfect place to explore the natural beauty of the state, relax, and indulge in outdoor activities. Its rich history and cultural sites adds to the charm of this beautiful region. Whether you're looking for a weekend getaway or a longer trip, Big Sur is a must-see destination in California.

A Brief Introduction To Lake Aloha

If you live in California or you're heading there - specifically to the Sierra Nevada mountain range surrounding the Lake Tahoe basin, Lake Aloha is a popular destination for hikers in the Desolation Wilderness . The hike to Lake Aloha is can be a challenging one.  I'd definitely label it rigorous if you haven't done much hiking or backing.  It involves a significant elevation gain and can be quite rocky in some areas (to the point where rolling your ankles and sliding around quite a bit will be the rule not the exception as you make your way to your travel destination). To reach Lake Aloha, you'll need to start at the Echo Lakes trailhead (which is located off of CA Highway 50, at the summit, which is located just up the hill and west of South Lake Tahoe). From the trailhead, you'll follow the Pacific Crest Trail south for about 1.5 miles before reaching the spur trail that leads to Lake Aloha. From there, it's about another 3 miles to the lake, with an elevati

A Winter Carnival

Traveling doesn't always have to be a physical "trip".  Simply looking at a photo can trigger the imagination and bring us to that place without actually going. Yes, we'd all rather go and be there, but we do have responsibilities to take of first.  While we're taking care of those responsibilities, a cup of coffee and our imagination drives us to get things done, so we can mark the calendar for that next vacation.
