The Palm Springs Aerial Tramway in Palm Springs, California is the largest rotating aerial tramway in the world. It was opened in September 1963 as a way of getting from the floor of the Coachella Valley to near the top of San Jacinto Peak and was constructed in rugged Chino Canyon. Before its construction, the only way to the top of the mountain was to hike for several hours from Idyllwild<\/p>\n

The eight-and-a-half-minute ride begins at the Valley Station at 2,643 ft (806 m) and passes up North America’s sheerest mountain face through several life zones on its way to the Mountain Station at 8,516 ft (2,596 m) above mean sea level. Join the fun!<\/strong><\/a>f<\/p>\n

After we departed the mountain, we drove through Palm Strings and took 74 over the mountain and ended up at the Phoenix Club to dance until the band quit!<\/p>\n
