Palm Springs Aerial Tramway is the worlds largest rotating tramcar. This ride certainly gets the pucker factor because it starts in the desert and you will see just how crazy steep it gets before you get off at snow level.
Very steep, but stunning views! This vertical cable car also spins around.
Once we were at the top, I asked an attendant if he had experienced an earthquake up top as the San Andreas Fault line is right there. The answer was YES, with big eyes and a nod of his head.
We did go down into the 2 fault lines but for some reason, my photos didn't take. This is part of the "Thousand Palms Oasis".
The tectonic plates are always rubbing which in this area causes the spring water to rise to the surface. So these palms are directly on the 2 plates.
Shown here (photo below) is the spring water that is brought to the surface. When you cross the bridge over the water, you are on the other tectonic plate. The 2 plates are the North American Plate, and the Pacific Plate.
I hope you enjoyed my post because I enjoyed making it.
