Finally, in Palm Canyon proper
|
|
|
|
 |
We saw several scenes like this one
|
|
 |
Jonathon is happy that a rock cushioned his fall. Much preferable to cactus!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
The trail weaves through the cholla
|
|
|
 |
What a grin!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
We passed this group of hikers on the jeep trail. Actually we passed them twice (they passed us at a small breakdown)
|
|
 |
Lunch in the shade
|
|
 |
In the middle of nowhere, a palm tree. I guess that's why it's called Palm Canyon
|
|
 |
Approaching a very technical downhill
|
|
|
|
|
 |
Everyone started walking about here
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
These palm trees weren't doing so well. The tops had fallen off
|
|
 |
No chortage of cholla here!
|
|
|
|
 |
Palm Springs at night, on the way back down from the shuttle. You can barely see some cars on the road below in the foreground
|
|
 |
The hotel room had an interesting air conditioner, a high-tech flat-panel model
|
|
 |
In the morning, the view from the roof of the hotel in Palm Desert
