Tahquitz Peak

General Palm Springs area.

The route looks something like what I've plotted on this map.

From about point "G" (the location of point "G" is not at all exact), you catch a use trail that leads up to Red Tahquitz.

When you get to the top there is sort of a more northerly peaklet and a southerly peaklet. The best views are from the more southerly peaklet. I believe that the southerly peaklet is slightly higher.

When you head for Saddle Junction, I think going through Tahquitz Meadow is the nicer way. There's also a spring near the junction of the trail to Caramba and the trail through Tahquitz Meadow (point "Q").
