A quiet place in September

Escalante Petrified Forest State Park preserves a stunning collection of fossilized trees, some over 135 million years old, scattered across a high desert mesa. Here, you'll see colorful logs turned to stone and panoramic views of Wide Hollow Reservoir. There are places to camp, canoe, hike, or ride through this beautiful area, making it a great place to spend a weekend just outside of Escalante.

Phantom Ranch is the only accommodation in the Grand Canyon and is usually booked out for years. In the evening you can choose between a hiker stew or steak with beans and potatoes. These two dinners are also booked months in advance. But in the Ranch shop you can buy various snacks and drinks. You should definitely send a postcard from the Phantom Ranch, because it gets the stamp "Mailed by mule". The mail is still transported from the Grand Canyon by mule like back in the days.

This is a great rest stop or turnaround point on your run. Expect vault toilets and shade, and during the summer there's usually potable water here, too. Always check current conditions before you set out, though, because sometimes the water is turned off for maintenance projects. It's usually turned off during the winter, too.

Fortunately there is water here

古いホラー映画のファンなら、ティンバーライン・ロッジは特定の映画を思い出させるかもしれません。ここはスティーブン・キングの名作「シャイニング」の撮影場所で、ジャック・ニコルソンが出演しています。映画に出てくる「Here's Johnny」と書かれた斧もあり、一緒にセルフィーを撮ることができます。ロッジは素晴らしい朝食とランチビュッフェでも人気があります。ビュッフェに参加するにはオンラインで予約が必要で、料金は一人25ドルです。本当におすすめです！

With 10,883 feet, Mount San Jacinto is the highest peak in the San Jacinto Mountains. There is a network of hiking trails around the summit and the San Jacinto State Park itself. If the weather turns for the worst, you can find shelter in a little hut close to the summit. You can either take a hike from Idyllwild on the west side of the mountain or Palm Springs on the east side. There is also an aerial tramway you can use to get into the San Jacinto Wilderness. If you feel adventurous, you can cross the mountain range using the Pacific Crest Trail.
