Palm Springs Windmills


Heading from Yucca Valley down into the Coachella Valley....




First sighting of the many windmills in the Palm Springs area....



Snow on the mountains....



Just a few of the 4000 windmills in the San Bernadino mountains....




These windmills provide enough electricity to power the entire Coachella Valley! The Gman wants to know how we can get one! They are very expensive, but a fantastic natural way to garner electricity! Tours of the Windmill Farms are available.

  1. Annie, what an exciting trip. I lived in the Yucca Valley area for about 22 years! It doesn't look like much and you have to love the desert. You also have to experience the full moon nights on horseback! The wild life is pretty amazing. I traveled that same road down to work in Palm Springs for 17 years! Enjoy your road trip!
