| Feel the Whoooosh! You’ve seen them as you’ve traveled through the fabled San Gorgonio Pass near Palm Springs – stupendous, giant windmills with blades half the length of a football field spinning around. These aren't the windmills we used to see on grandpa's farm – you’re looking at the future first-hand. Spectacular mountain vistas provide a backdrop as we travel along the Colorado Desert terrain of the Coachella Valley. Our knowledgable tour guide will explain why this forest of technological wonders was placed here, the international history of wind energy, current utilization of wind power, and provide an informative glimpse into the future using this energy. Get up close and personal with incredible photo opportunities! An included lunch with choice of entrée at an award-winning 4-star restaurant in Palm Springs nestled at the base of the San Jacinto Mountains. Also a visit to the Moorten Botanical Gardens featuring 3,000 examples of desert cacti and other desert plants. |
