San Jacinto this morning

Postby ishootstars » Wed Dec 05, 2012 1:01 am

It doesn't get any nicer than today... Low 60's, high clouds and empty trails. Only ice I saw was frozen pools along the creek east of Round Valley. Looks like it's going to be nice for a few more days. Get out while you can.

Thanks. It was a rare December day that felt like September. Now bring on the snow!

Beautiful photo. Where was it shot from? Just along 111?

HJ, I think that's the Tram Road just to the left. You can see Coffman's Crag prominently, so it's not from Snow Creek, as you can't see it from there and San J is more pronounced from a more western viewpoint. I'd say on the south side of the 111 just west of the Tram Road.

Looks like Cahuila Canyon from South Palm Canyon Drive to me.
Happy Trails!

Thanks for the love everyone. I actually shot that from the parking lot of the Palm Springs Visitor center. I always pull in there to do last minute emails and text's before I head up the mountain.
