Golden Sunset & Crashing Waves at Patrick's Point (Sue-Meg) State Park in Northern California
https://www.theamericansouthwest.com/redwood-national-state-parks/sue-meg-state-park At Sue-Meg (Patrick’s Point) State Park in Trinidad, California in the Northern Redwood Empire part of that state you can hike, camp, check out tide pools, see the sea mammals like seals and whales, enjoy some history, and most of all, gaze at the amazing sunsets that turn the Pacific Coast of Northern California into a golden paradise.
When I told my friends from Northern California that I was visiting Trinidad and the Redwoods, they all mentioned I had to hit up Patrick’s Point. Not knowing what that was I agreed and looked forward to it! When we got to our seaside cabin in Trinidad I asked the concierge lobby woman where was the best spot to see the ocean and the waves and the sunset and she said Sue-Meg State Park just down the road. So we went and… it was beyond incredible. The crashing waves, the golden sunset, the view of the beach and the tall seaside trees. It was perfect. But this Patrick’s Point place eluded me. Until later when I found out that California very recently changed the name Patrick’s Point to Sue-Meg. Whatever the amazing place is called, it’s worth a visit.

Elk Grazing in Rocky Mountain National Park in the Summer of 2020 with Snow Falling in the Morning. September 10th, 2020. https://www.theamericansouthwest.com/rocky-mountain-national-park/wildlife One of the most exciting things about Rocky Mountain National Park is the abundance of wildlife that’s easily spotted while in your vehicle or on foot! There are plenty of Elk and if you’re there at the right time you can hear their spooky call or see them practice fighting to take down the big guy. The amazing and awesome Ice Age Mammal, the Moose, is easy to spot as well! But don’t get too close to any of the wildlife as they are still… wild. Rocky Mountain National Park is an awesome place in the high Rocky Mountains of Colorado with beautiful vistas of the landscape and wildlife, an exciting and scenic road, and plenty of hikes. There’s something for everyone here and it’s absolutely worth the trip. Like many places out west, the National Park has seen the number of visitors sky rocket so they have enacted a timed reservation entry, which will be the way for most parks in the future, I imagine. So make sure you book your journey or arrive before 5am or after 6pm. The scenic drive that connects the two sides of the park is called Trail Ridge Road or the Highway to the Sky and is 48 miles of astonishing views. Absolutely be on the lookout for all the amazing wildlife from Eagles to Elk and the Pleistocene hangover, the Moose. The two popular places to stay are Estes Park and Grand Lake and both are gorgeous towns, although Grand Lake is quieter and more remote but Estes Park has got it all.

GROTT
grottoes-of-echo-canyon-loop-trail-in
https://www.theamericansouthwest.com/chiricahua-national-monument/echo-canyon-trail The Echo Canyon Loop Trail is one of the coolest trails I've ever done and one of two I’ve done in Chiricahua National Monument. At 3.4 miles roundtrip, it is much shorter than the Heart of Rocks Loop and it has easier elevation change. The highlight of the trail is once you emerge yourself within the Grottoes only about .5 miles from the Trailhead. To start, park at the Echo Canyon trailhead and head down Echo Canyon before taking Hailstone Trail along the side of the ridge (if done in the early summer morning hours, you’re graciously in the shade) and then going up Ed Riggs Trail back to the parking lot. There’s a sign at the trailhead that says of the amazingly engineered trail: “The Grottoes are testaments to the incredible power of water erosion. Farther down the trail is Wall Street, a long narrow passage hemmed in by vertical walls of volcanic rock. Near the base of Echo Canyon, the trail enters Echo Park, a peaceful grove of stately Arizona cypress and Douglas fir trees.” The Trail was built by the CCC in 1936-1937 under the direction of the engineering genius Ed Riggs. It is truly a fantastic trail. On the Hailstone Trail make sure to admire the Yucca, cactus, and other desert flora and fauna. Also be on the lookout for the tallest and thinnest rhyolite rock hoodoo; the Totem Pole, which towers at 300 feet tall.
