8,500 elevation to snow!

Palm Springs tram was quite an adventure. Go from 60 degree sunny weather to 35 degrees and snow! The ride up was about 10-12 mins, the tram does rotate 360 so you get a glimpse of all the views of the valley! Once at the very top, there’s multiple option of food and drinks, the hot chocolate was amazing and needed for warmth. Plenty of seating for breaks which you will need, the paths are SUPER steep! Definitely a great trip and recommend if you’re not afraid of heights. #palmsprings #aerialtram #deserttosnow #awesomepic #heights #trees #mountains

Palm Springs

Palm Springs became famous in the 1900s, as a favorite retreat for John Muir and his daughters early in the century, and developing into a refuge for glamorous movie stars into the 1930s. Now, it’s no less fabulous, but has a more robust tourism industry accessible to all! While in Palm Springs, be sure to spend an early morning wandering through the massive, “furry” palm trees in Andreas Canyon (part of the Indian Canyons). The light is especially beautiful early in the morning, and it’s nice to be able to explore the area before the crowds start to arrive around 9:30/10:00am. Afterward, stop at the Moorten Botanical Garden to wander the really beautifully curated maze of exotic desert plants and cacti. You also won’t want to miss some of the famous Palm Springs mid-century modern design and architecture — my favorite spots are the Parker Hotel, the Palm Springs Architecture Museum, Palm Springs Art Museum’s Architecture and Design Center, Twin Palms Estates, Coachella Valley Savings and Loan, Elrod House Interior, and the Tramway Gas Station. Be sure to wander the main street to check out the beautiful mid-century home design shops and funky clothing boutiques, and enjoy the diverse food scene. On your way out, stop at San Gorgonio Pass for a photo-op with a sea of windmills! #awesomepic
