Just opened in 2020, the East Indio Badlands Trail hike offers a spectacular loop through a classic badland topography formed by thousands of years of erosion and an active San Andreas Fault. You’ll hike through slot canyons, in the shadow of tectonic uptilts, and along a prominent ridge with 360 views from the Salton See to San Gorgonio Mountain. It’s an extremely fun hike at a shorter distance that makes it accessible to almost all types of hikers.

No body explain better than you, you are the man
Thank you!
thanks so much for this video, this is so helpful. appreciated your time and effort.
Did this today! 112 degrees. Had the place to myself. :)
thanks so much for this.
Hiked this trail today. I missed that first crucial turn off the local path, but was able to regroup with little problem and it was a great day. Beautiful temps, stunning scenery, and not crowded at all. Thanks for this excellent guide!
Really helpful. At one point I felt like I was in an old Star Trek episode and something was watching me. Creepy.
You're in our neck of the woods! I love this trail.
Nice, yea, it's a great one. So nice to see a new trail getting established too. We need more of that.
Every time I watch your videos I’m thankful for the work you put into them. What a cool hike, thanks for taking us along. Glad your well and out there doing what you love.
Thank you 🙏 👍 and glad that you enjoy the videos. I try to do them as if I'm telling a friend about the hike, and hopefully you get to go out and enjoy some of them too.
@@Hikingguy We are so blessed and grateful to be moving to St George Utah in just a couple of weeks, a dream come true. We vacation in Newport CA so I’m looking forward to doing some of the hikes I’ve watched you do next time we are there in CA. Again, thank you! Stay well and happy
Thank you. Tried in Nov. 2021 and I think I got off the track somewhat so gave up. Will try again in Feb. 2022 using your items as my guide.
Glad to see you doing better and getting out there on some of the more challenging trails again. I bagged Rattlesnake Peak last Saturday with 7 of my hiking buddies....my knees and quads are still mad at me but boy, was it worth it. Big Iron is up next👍
Congrats, that's a brutal one. I decided not to do a guide for that one because it's probably too intense for most folks. The last time I did it I remember thinking what was tougher, the climb or descent. It's no joke, good work on that and have fun on Big Iron, which I found easier than Rattlesnake. The trail is def easier to follow.
Cris, timely video. I'll be out in that area in one month and looking forward to taking some good hikes. Thanks.
Enjoy it, lots of great options > hikingguy.com/hike/hiking-trails/palm-springs-hiking-trails/
I spend a few weeks in the Palm Desert area every November and am always looking for new hikes. As a guidebook author I really appreciated the detailed information on this hike and loved the hike through the slot canyons and the amazing rock formations...until we switchbacked up to the top and reached the ridge. I have a strong fear of heights which is mainly caused by narrow trails with steep drop offs which that ridgeline had an abundance of, unfortunately I really didn''t understand that from your description. I get it, that if you don't have a fear of heights you can't understand what would trigger it (most of my hiking buddies don't get it) but just think when you are describing a trail that if a hiker took a step off the trail they would fall a long way, that would be a trail section that would scare the beejeebies out of those of us with heights issues.
Probabaly going to do this on Sunday thanks for the tip!
Did you make it on Sunday?
@@Hikingguy no sorry I was tired from my workout on Saturday. Did Newport reserve instead(BTW they blocked off a good portion of the trail going into the Marsh so you’re only allowed to go on the marsh towards the end of the hike and back onto the dirt trails.
Probably going to do that Indio hike this Sunday though. Want to do it before it starts getting too hot.
@@kermit1 Nice, yea the Back Bay trail can get a little crazy on the weekends too. Think they blocked the lower trails off because of the crowds / COVID. Should be okay this weeend for Badlands...
@@Hikingguy I did it today great hike. Walking thru those rock crevices reminds me of walking thru those fun houses at carnivals
Gorgeous area! I really need to branch out farther from the OC beach areas to places like this.
Yea, that's the great thing about SoCal, you have so many different landscapes all within an hour or two. You could def make a good hiking weekend in the Palm Springs area. Lots of options > hikingguy.com/hike/hiking-trails/palm-springs-hiking-trails/
Hello Sir, how many miles was the total hike? how long did it take you to finish?
Check the link in the description for all that info 👍
Nice I'll be there next week, question, is any hike closed to this area were you can hike thru San Andres fault?
Yea I'm not sure of the exact position but around the trailhead your prob right over it. This is a great resource: maps.conservation.ca.gov/cgs/fam/
Thank you I'll be there this Saturday, a Toyota Camry I can work for the dirty route?
Another great hike! What is that river near the parking lot called?
It’s the all American canal
@@leslietyler9047 I can't believe I've never heard of it before. I'm in the area all the time. Time to do research on it, thanks 😊
@@CobaltHaze I grew up here in the valley and we had someone come from the local water district to talk to us about staying out of the canals because kids would try and swim in them and die because they couldn’t get out. It’s more of a “tributary” canal that comes off of the all American canal.
That's awesome to know, thanks for posting that! I was surprised to see all the fish in there.
