O: San Jacinto Loops Hike
Getting too hot for you in the low lands? Join us for a hike from the top of the Palm Springs Tram to Round Valley and, if people feel up to it, Wellman Divide. Meet at the lower Palm Springs Tram station at 9:30 AM. Tram tickets are $34.95 for adults, $31.95 for seniors (65+). My recollection is there may be a parking fee as well but I don't see that on the Palm Spring Trams website.

Getting too hot for you in the low lands? Join us for a hike from the top of the Palm Springs Tram to Round Valley and, if people feel up to it, Wellman Divide.
If we go all the way to Wellman Divide it will be about 5.5 miles with an elevation gain and loss of about 1300 feet. If you are susceptible to altitude sickness, be aware that we will be above 8400 feet for the entire hike. This is a wilderness hike and Sierra Club rules require that each participant have a completed medical form which will be emailed to registered participants before the hike.

If you wish to carpool, please note that on your registration and we will circulate your name to others also interested so you can make arrangements.
