it’s rare to find yourself on any plot of land that holds two generations of history
Canyon Country Club — now known as the Indian Canyons neighborhood — has four
Prior to the arrival of white settlers in the Coachella Valley following the Southern Pacific’s construction of the transcontinental railway
the canyon area at the far south end of Palm Springs was home to one of the Agua Caliente Tribe’s primary population centers
View of the Palm Canyon oasis at the Indian Canyons
new ideas were hatched for the canyons and the land atop the alluvial fan between the San Jacinto and Santa Rosa mountain ranges
The federal government tried to make the area into a national park
But with the advent of 99-year Indian land leasing in 1959
more commercial ambitions were born for what many considered the most beautiful corner of Palm Springs
outside investors could lease Indian lands for nearly a century at a time
and the Agua Caliente could unlock the value of their ancestral lands without selling them
The intricate lease at Canyon Country Club took years to negotiate and was the largest in the history of the United States
a publicly traded corporation from New York set forth in developing its nearly 500 acres
transforming not only the physical environment but the financial fortunes of the Agua Caliente
It was from this layered and complex necessity that Canyon Country Club was born
authored by some of the region’s most esteemed designers
addressed a series of requirements formed to answer the needs of both its investors and the city at large
large fairway homesites to rival those at Eldorado
cooperative apartments to house the city’s growing population
and a lavish resort all coalesced beneath the mountains and streams to create a corner of Palm Springs that felt unlike any other
Now a full quarter-century into Palm Springs’ globally recognized
it may seem unnecessary to offer further musings on its buildings
many of Canyon Country Club’s streets have remained anonymous in their glamorous modernity
begging for pause and deeper consideration
well-known icons of the Palm Springs School of Architecture helped define the place
and William Krisel all left their marks here
But an emerging deeper cut of talented architects and designers like Michael Black
and Charles Du Bois made statements worthy of more than idle admiration
Each corner of the neighborhood offers some form of mystery: a new name
an unseen connection to a larger theme of the time
Construction at Canyon Country Club circa 1961
Though he was already living at Tamarisk and a member of its social and golfing scenes
Canyon became a place where Sinatra spent much of his recreation time
a Chairman of the Board in his own professional life
became a close friend of Sinatra’s and attended events like the intimate birthday for Sinatra’s mother
and a celebration of the elder Sinatras’ 50th anniversary
who detested the restricted policies of other clubs and chose Tamarisk as his home because of its unrestricted policies
“In a landscape where nothing officially exists (otherwise it would not be ‘desert’)

Robert Grundt could not have dreamed of a better publicity-generating opportunity than to have Sinatra — one of the most famous people in the world — attach his name to the club
who had recently sold Reprise to Warner Bros
saw virtually his entire former stable of artists show up to support him at the tournament
a gala dinner and show was held at the Riviera Resort ballroom
delivered a Palm Springs rendition of a Rat Pack performance
backed by Les Brown and His Band of Renown
Photographs from the celebrity tournament and party on Nov
show the notoriously mercurial Sinatra looking very happy
not knowing that an exceedingly dark time in his life was merely days away
Kennedy threw the singer into a debilitating depression
which was then compounded by the bizarre Dec

This lodge is all about its spectacular location
within a national monument and between two national parks
Ever come across an incredible hotel that stops you mid-scroll and makes you think
and other places perched in perfect outdoor settings
Read on for the intel you need to book an upcoming adventure here
Ten feet overhead in a desert canyon in Utah, a jammed log spanned the gully, left by a recent flash flood. In the next passage in Harris Wash in Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument
our group gazed up at a tangled brown stripe of debris from the same flood
adorning a green cottonwood tree like Spanish moss
All our lives we marvel at nature’s power. Here we also appreciated the immovability of geology—rock walls—as our group of nine, all staying in the region at the Ofland Escalante complex
at first walked and then arduously wormed through a narrowing slot canyon
When the sides pinched down to only a foot wide
“I don’t know if I can do this.” He was pinned
is situated amid the landscape of the national monument and between two national parks
I’ve been in squeeze chimneys before; they can be awful and claustrophobic
DeMarco pressed on, and something gave, and he scraped through the constriction. I followed, ducking, and emerged into the light, where he waited smiling. At each obstacle, following canyoneering practices shown us by Rick Green, owner of the guiding outfit Excursions of Escalante
This trip last August was to the treasure that is Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument
where friends and I all stayed two nights at Ofland Escalante
central base located within the national monument and two miles west of the pioneer town of the same name
with much of the drive on a washboard road.)
Not everyone in our group loved our several-hour canyoneering experience
having split into two groups (one with Amie Fortin of the same outfit)
we all convened for lunch in a bowl among blunt buttresses that were once ancient sand dunes
the slickrock around us inscribed with fine criss-cross lines
with hardy piñon-juniper trees in clumps nearby
and Navajo tribes once dwelled in this region
Tracing the undulating wind- and water-sculpted walls
I peered into natural niches like little altars
Closed each winter but slated to reopen March 12
Ofland Escalante is located just off Highway 12
Opened in 2021 on the site of an old RV park and drive-in movie theater
a “luxury RV park” known as Yonder Escalante
In May 2023 the new owners added “deluxe” cabins
and last year renamed the place (“Ofland” is for “of the land”)
and brings people together in communal spaces
The place offers four types of accommodations
simple and boxy with floor-to-ceiling windows
The central common area draws visitors with a fire pit
Our crew brought over s’mores supplies from our rooms and gathered at the tables for spirited rounds of Uno
you can still enjoy the vintage outdoor “drive-in” theater
where you watch from inside one of nine in-situ classic cars
Other property diversions include a hot tub and swimming pool
Escalante (and Ofland Escalante) are in road-trip reach of five national parks, four state parks, another national monument, and the vast Dixie National Forest, all boasting a myriad of amazing hikes
You’re also in the high-elevation desert here. The town of Escalante is set at 5,800 feet, and the surrounding area rises to about 8,600 feet, while Bryce Canyon National Park reaches 9,000 feet. So ascend gradually and, while you are outside and exerting, pay attention to your water intake
and Excursions of Escalante can take you out
and use their guides’ situational experience to avoid dangerous floods
but you should arrive wearing good trail shoes and clothes that take being abraded
A little on-site commentary from a canyon in Harris Wash
A Utah friend tells me that Lower Calf Creek Falls
a 6.7-mile out-and-back starting 19 miles northeast of Escalante
and she once saw a condor—and “a little of everything” else
from steep sections to sandy patches and a 125-foot waterfall
Please do not pocket any pieces of petrified wood. Things in the desert are supposed to stay there. Besides, I’ve read that the chunks are haunted
My Deluxe Cabin’s outside shower was heaven
and I could gaze out at the sky and the surrounding scrub-covered dun bluffs
The Deluxe Cabins (from $259 per night) are the most cushy places
the only ones with private bathrooms and their own driveways
and a queen bed and pull-out sofa such that it can sleep up to four
From the cabins it’s a five-minute walk to the main lodge
and the lodge has golf carts for transport around the property
Other options include vintage Airstreams ($175 per night)
The cabins have front decks and the Airstreams step out to picnic tables and fire pits
Both use shared bathrooms with amenities and open-air showers
Pop over to the on-site food truck, prepare your own meals in your kitchenette, or go out for dinner at 4th West Pub in the delightfully small and funky town of Escalante
4th West offers 30 types of beers; burgers
where my friends played half the night; and a nice local vibe
but in warm temps it would be wonderful to enjoy the view from there over dinner
Kiva Koffeehouse
14 miles east of town and located within the national monument
is a magical-looking complex overlooking the startlingly green forest lining the Escalante River
It offers vegetarian-friendly Southwest fare
Thirteen miles farther north is Hell’s Backbone Grill and Farm in the town of Boulder
features ethically sourced ingredients and its own organic garden
The owners practice Buddhist principles and are committed to social responsibility
Ofland Escalante is open mid-March through October
Spring and fall will have you cozying up around the fire pits
Summer is bound to put you in the swimming pool
All indoor accommodations have heat and A/C
The small Bryce Canyon Airport is just four miles north of Bryce Canyon National Park, 48 miles from Escalante. Most visitors fly into Salt Lake City and rent a car for the amazing 294-mile drive south and back with its section on Highway 12
actually site of three major rock-art panels
via a family-friendly 1.2-mile round-trip off Highway 12
starting from the Escalante River Trailhead 14 miles east of Escalante
a snake—are visible just five minutes along the trail
The trail contours up to an alcove where you see the 100 Hands (more like 160 Hands) panel
and beyond that is the Shaman and Hunter panel
with a bowhunting scene and collection of shaman figures wearing headpieces
stop and get out at the Homestead Overlook
to see the tableau of the Grand Staircase–Escalante National Monument
and the Waterpocket Fold of Capitol Reef National Park
with their oceanic deposits and sedimentary layers
red and gold desert against the bumpy skyline of the Henry Mountains
you pass the Fishaven Reservoir and may see some sandhill cranes
before winding through the treed hamlet of Boulder

the tragedy carried a deeper sting—it was not just a workplace loss but their primary means of livelihood
Roberto had been part of the Yoshinoya team since the day the restaurant opened over a decade ago
his wife Lidia and their son Bobby joined him at the restaurant
creating a family legacy of hard work and hospitality
with the restaurant reduced to rubble and no clear timeline for rebuilding
and Bobby suddenly find themselves unemployed and grappling with the harsh reality of financial insecurity
Adding to their worries is the joyful yet pressing anticipation of Bobby and his partner Jillian’s first child
In response to this crisis, a GoFundMe campaign was created with the hope of rallying the community to support the Tolentinos during their time of need
The heartfelt message accompanying the Yoshinoya fundraiser painted a vivid picture of the family’s resilience
It recounted Roberto’s tireless efforts to provide for his family
and Bobby’s aspirations as a young father-to-be
a sum intended to help the family cover rent and essential bills while they searched for new employment
Recognizing that the holiday season and ongoing wildfire challenges had already strained many households
the organizer humbly appealed to the community’s goodwill
“Even the smallest amount would mean the world to us,” the GoFundMe read
urging people to donate or share the campaign if financial contributions weren’t possible
The GoFundMe became more than just a financial lifeline—it was a testament to the power of community and the bonds that can form in unexpected places
it was a beacon of hope in a time of despair
a reminder that generosity and kindness can light the way forward

Around 10:20 a.m. Friday, a deputy patrolling Canyon Country located a stolen vehicle traveling east on Soledad Canyon Road near Ruether Avenue
Additional deputies were requested to respond
and a felony traffic stop was initiated on Soledad Canyon Road near Rainbow Glen Drive
Deputies detained the suspect without incident
Just before 1 p.m. Thursday law enforcement received reports of shots fired on Grace Lane in Canyon Country
with the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station

the call is now being investigated as an assault with a deadly weapon
Sheriff’s officials confirmed no persons were struck by gunfire
Five shell casings were recovered from the scene

The project received approval from the city in October 2017
and after years of planning and community input
residents and commuters in Canyon Country can observe the transformation of the area
eagerly anticipating the new housing options
and community amenities that Sand Canyon Plaza will offer
