As many of you guys know I live in the California Desert near Palm Springs and we have an incredible range of impressive Mountains. Right from my back porch, I have the most beautiful panoramic view of the Santa Rosa Mountains just a few hundred yards from our house.
Naturally of course hiking is a wonderful activity we partake in on a consistent basis here. One of the greatest aspects of hiking is that you kill two birds with one stone. What I mean is its such an enjoyable activity as you get to view wildlife and smell the clean air and look at the beautiful Ranges as well as giving your Heart a good workout and keeping the body fat off at the same time !! 
Just last year on one of my favorite Hikes in the Santa Rosa Mountains ,we got to see these beautiful Rams eating on the side of a slope. Actually they are a form of sheep but they highly resemble Rams. We took pictures and just watched in amazement at these creatures that live on rocky, barren mountains in 120 degree weather.
Also 2 months ago about 10 yards off the trail I was hiking with my daughter, we saw a Coyote. Yeah, I thought it was a dog but when it took off into the mountains I could see it was a wild Coyote.
Now I know many of you may not have access to the Desert Mountains like I have in my backyard but Hiking can be done anywhere that you have some forest and tress with some varied terrain.
Its a very adventuresome sport and one where you can have so much fun and do your body good at the same time !! 
And without the pounding that Running requires. So it will save on the wear and tear of your joints and knees. As you get older you will find how beneficial this one issue can be !!
