Summary

Description
English: The majority of the 619 megawatt San Gorgonio Pass Wind Farm, the fourth largest windfarm in the US, at the western end of the Coachella Valley in California, USA. (The farm continues over the hills to the north along California State Route 62 and is not visible from this, vantagepoint). The San Gorgonio Pass is one of the windiest places on earth. The 10 freeway cuts across the image horizontally, and CA 62 comes off it to the North. Original is a 39 image stitched panorama @ 300mm, shot from the top of the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway.
