My wife Abby and I were lucky enough to honeymoon in Hawai’i in December. While there we visited Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park on the Big Island of Hawai’i and hiked the Kilauea Iki Trail vai Crater Rim Trail. It was an amazing experience hiking through a Hawaiian rainforest and then atop a lava lake

I recently returned from an Alaska vacation where myself and 3 friends hiked the Kesugi Ridge Trail in Denali State Park. Hiking Kesugi Ridge in Fall was a special treat because we were able to see all the Alaska foliage in its beautiful Fall colors.

If you’re looking for where to hike in Idyllwild, California look no further than Suicide Rock via Deer Springs Trail which offers the best views of the Idyllwild, Pine Cove, Fern Valley. Never heard of Idyllwild? Get ready to fall in love with this mountain oasis just 2.5 hours east of Los Angeles.

Today I’m solo hiking the most difficult hiking trail in Los Angeles I’ve hiked, Echo Mountain via Rubio Canyon. AllTrails rates this trail as Difficult and they aren’t kidding because it’s basically a 1400 foot ascent straight up the mountain.

Instead of going south I switch things up and head north across the Mississippi River into Illinois and hike the Outer Loop Trail in Pere Marquette State Park. The day started off rainy and wet, but made for a beautiful hike into the clouds.

Got to love a good snow hike! Today we’re exploring Alderfer / Three Sisters Park in Evergreen Colorado and hiking Three Sisters Loop which has three snowy peaks and the Brothers Lookout. This day hike is 1 hour from Denver and it’s just gorgeous being surrounded by the beautiful Evergreen Colorado snow. Definitely a highlight hike with friends.

Welcome back to the second half of our hike through Staunton State Park near Conifer, Colorado. In this section my friends and I hike to the top of the final scenic overlook, through an enchanting aspen grove, and to Staunton’s Old Mill which was built in the 1800s. We also get barked at by a not too friendly squirrel. Thanks for joining us on this hike!

Staunton State Park is Colorado’s newest state park and is located near Conifer, Colorado, about 45 minutes from Denver. If you’re looking for where to hike near Denver this is perfect day hiking in Colorado.

If you’ve ever wondered where to hike in Los Angeles or Burbank, let me introduce you to my favorite hiking trail in LA: Vital Link Trail to Verdugo Peak in Wildwood Canyon. This Burbank hiking trail is a toughy, but on a clear day you get gorgeous 360 views of the San Fernando Valley, Angeles National Forest, and even Downtown LA. It’s a steep hike, and for sure one of the hardest hikes in LA, in my opinion though, 100 percent worth it!

Whats Malibu like? Today I’m showing you as I hike one of Malibu’s top scenic spots Corral Canyon Trail for a sunset Malibu hike.

The Corral Canyon Trail offers amazing Malibu ocean views and if you’re wondering where to watch the sunset in Malibu, it’s a great spot!

If you’re wondering where to hike in Big Bear, California, Castle Rock Trail is a moderate 2.5 mile hike and is considered one of the best hikes in Big Bear because of the full 360 view of Big Bear Lake you get at the top of Castle Rock.
