The Ice Bar in West Covina


Ice Bar in West Covina is a cute little dessert place where they serve regular ice cream as well as customized decorated pop bars. Similar to Popbar in Anaheim, this place offers different toppings beside just regular chocolate and nuts. These pops offer a different blend of flavors. Things that I thought that would be weird to eat with ice cream worked out pretty well. It's definitely a nice treat on a hot day. I tried the strawberry mango pop with chile, lemon, and mint. Was dee-lish and worth a try. My friends got the green milk tea and strawberries and cream which all were very delicious. A definite recommend if you are in the area.

Devil's Chair & View of Devil's Punchbowl

Devil's Punchbowl View from Devil's Chair

Hike Breakdown:
Level: Moderate
Distance: 7.5 miles
Elevation Gain: 594 feet
Parking: Adventure/Interagency Pass

This hike is located in the San Gabriels and in Angeles National Forest. I was very surprised with this hike because I didn't think it was going to be much of a workout but it was! I had the opportunity to do this hike with my favorite people and it was definitely an enjoyable experience. It was a fairly hot day, in the 80s and the hike was intermittently shaded. Trails are well defined and the hike has many wonderful views of Devil's Punchbowl by the ranger station. There is also a loop if you wanted to do a really short hike. I'm definitely coming back during fall/winter time for this hike. I can imagine how beautiful it would be with all the snow.


 This sign is posted a few miles before you hit the chair.

There were 180 views of Devil's Punchbowl before the start of the hike.

 Start at Burkhart Trail that eventually splits to the main trail.

No clue what kind of insect that is


The trail is surrounded by many colorful plants.


No shade here...and not for awhile.
