  • Palm Springs Tram

    23 kwietnia, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C

    We joined Phil, Julia and Oleg for the Tram ride . A 10 minute ride and 2.5 miles. The Tram rotates as you make your journey. Starting at 2,643 ft., landing at 8,516 ft.
    Still some snow in shaded areas. Walking paths are refreshing change from the valley floor, with the tall pine trees and lovely pine smells. Great views of Coachella Valley. Czytaj więcej

  • Desert Hot Springs

    27 kwietnia, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ 🌬 16 °C

    Desert Hot Springs features three Desert Xs installations.

    The Act of Being Together - Invites visitors to contemplate the concept of togetherness. The marble slabs were moved from a site in Mexico.

    Soul Service Station. Artwork is a gas station. At this site, there was an interpreter. He really helped to understand all the nuances that the artist used.

    To Breathe. Concept focuses on the breath and it's connection to the Desert environment. Okay!! At first view of the site, we were unimpressed. But then as you approach and wonder around in side the colors were amazing.

    A great outing.
