Cool little tri- my first ever. Would definitely make the trip to compete there again. Course is 1/2 mile swim in Lake Cahuilla, 14 mile bike on local roads and 3 mile run round the lake. Nice people and really helpful with pre race swim and lecture the day before.
Swim wear ( wetsuit allowed)

Great little half marathon with plenty of water stops. I ran 2004 and 2005 and the weather was cool (rainy in 04 and cloudy in 05). Make a weekend of it as there is usually one or two festivals going on at the same time. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

Golf Clubs and proper golf course attire is required. Collared shirts and no denim. Bring a warm top if you think you might be out past dusk. It gets cold real quick! Theme: GolfingAddress: Greg Norman Course - 56-150 PGA Boulevard, La QuinPhone: 1.866.465.3914Directions: La Quinta, Palm Springs

Some visitors on later trams were wearing shorts and were definitely not prepared for the change in temperatures. Leave a Comment Theme: HikingDirections: Getting there - Palm Springs Aerial Tramway

There are a lot of golf courses in and around Palm Springs. Many of them are right in the middle of town. They come in all flavours -- from 9 hole all par 3's to championship courses; and many of them are open to public. It is all the more amazing in that Palm Springs is in the middle of a desert. The only way to get grass to grow is to water every day. Other than golf courses, there is not a lot of grass in Palm Springs.
We also found that the prices varied greatly - depending on the season, on the day of the week and on the time of day you are considering playing. For our visit in April, the price to golf from 3pm until dark was $20 for 18 holes at a par 3 golf course and $50 (with mandatory use of golf carts) for 18 holes at a traditional golf course.

The bump and grind hike is great. It's about 1.5 hours round trip and offers some great views of Rancho Mirage and the surronding area. The path is crushed rock, but beaten down enough for dogs, bikes, etc. Some parts get a little steep, but it's definitely not hardcore hiking.
good hiking shoes, some water. maybe binoculars for views at the top. The sun can beat down on you so maybe some sun screen or hat. On hot days definitely do the hike early morning. Theme: HikingAddress: Desert Dr, Rancho Mirage, CADirections: the main entrance is at the end of Deset Drive in Rancho Mirage. It is roughly across the street from The River shopping center on Hwy 111.
