The
Fortynine Palms Oasis spreads along a canyon creek as hikers gradually
descend the trail to the inviting shade, top left. An underground
water supply, reaching to the surface here and there, limits the palms'
spread up and down the canyon. A sign at the trailhead explains the
water source here. Abundant green vegetation beneath fan palms, above,
is evidence of water below the surface. A pool of water stands just
out of the image. |
