Snow forecast for mountains...
That's a stunning shot. Was it taken from the San Felipe wash?
Craig, I'm not sure.
When we received it from a reader, Leslie, it just said Boulevard. Where is the San Felipe wash?
Again, a sublime shot. Thank
Again, a sublime shot. Thank you.
The San Felipe wash (valley) runs north/south along the eastern foot of the San Diego county portion of the peninsular range. It begins (I believe...) just south east of Warner Springs and ends somewhere around Ocotillo. S1 runs right right up the center.
The southern portion of this valley is currently under threat of being destroyed by a massive windmill farm. Those interested in more details can find them at http://www.basinandrangewatch.org/OcotilloWind.html
