    A great set of images that remind me of the great time I had in Palm Springs two years ago (I'll be there again next February/March!). Here are a couple of my photos of the area you visited:

    First, Jim and me in the San Jacinto State Park at the top of the mountain, with Palm Springs down in the valley behind us.


    ......and a view of Palm Springs and Cathedral City from up there.


    Take care,
    Ham.

    Great photos. It's been twenty years since I visited Palm Springs. It's nice to see it still looks good.

    "Found it" as Ham and others have pointed out - the beauty of the mountains west of Palm Springs...
