Rockhouse Trail – Borrego Springs, California
We visit Anza Borrego State Park in southern California every winter and vary where we stay. We enjoy boondocking off of Rockhouse Trail and this winter we found the area to be the least crowded we have seen since much of the area was closed off 2 years ago.

The Town of Borrego Springs The center of town is Christmas Circle, a round about with a park in the center which holds a Farmer’s Market every Friday and offers free Wi-Fi. SkyArt I think we have seen and taken pictures of all the Ricardo Breceda sculptures around Borrego

After every hike we take I always say “Wow that was my favourite hike ever”. Well same with this hike. But then you go on the next hike and at the moment it seems like the best. It reminds me of the Annie Leibowitz quote when asked what her favourite
