Boo Hoff Trail-to the top and back

Distance: 8 miles
Elevation: 2,000
Difficulty: Moderate
Pace: 2mph
Cancellation: Cancellation after 8PM on Saturday will result in a no-show.

We will be on the trail promptly at 10:00 so please be on time. We will take a break at the top. The Boo Hoff Loop Trail begins in La Quinta Cove and winds for 12.8miles (we will hike 8 miles total, out and back)through Santa Rosa Mountain wilderness, where yellow and purple wildflowers, stunning rock features, and spindly ocotillo create a breathtaking backdrop. The first half of the route hugs the steep mountainside and leads to the Boo Hoff Panorama, where many hikers stop for an Instagram-worthy moment — the views stretch from the Salton Sea to the San Jacinto Mountains and beyond. We will turn around at this point after a brief rest. The 2,000 foot gain in elevation challenges experienced hikers and fitness fanatics alike, and with poorly marked pathways, little to no shade, and rocky terrain, hikers and horseback riders are advised to exercise extreme caution.

Everyone will go on the waitlist and I will manually add you to the hike. I offer priorities to those with a complete profile including photo, those who have made a positive impression on a previous hike, and new members. Repeated cancellations and no-shows will result in removal from this group. Please be respectful of others and remove yourself from this hike as soon as you can if you're not going to be able to attend.
