Trona Pinnacles

The Trona Pinnacles are a sight to behold in the California Desert National Conservation Area. More than 500 tufa spires rise from the bed of the Searles Lake Basin. The spires vary in size with some being as high as 140 feet. The pinnacles are porous rock formed as a deposit of calcium carbonite when springs interact with other bodies of water. In other words, they were all formed underwater. The pinnacles range in age from 10,000 to 100,000 years old.

Mitchell Caverns

Mitchell Caverns are a trio of limestone caves located in the Providence Mountains State Recreation Area. The "Tecopa" (named for a Shoshone Indian Chief) and "El Pakiva" (Devils House) caves are connected by a man-made tunnel and are open to guided tours. The "Winding Star" cave is considered dangerous and closed to the public. The caverns were a sacred place for the Chemehuevi Indians who referred to them as "the eyes of the mountain" due to their easily spotted dual entrances located near the top of the mountain.

Located 10 miles from Palm Springs & 45 minutes from Joshua Tree National Park. In the subtropical paradise of southern California's Coachella Valley, the Palm Springs / Joshua Tree KOA offers guests a variety of amenities and activities in a beautifully landscaped resort-style setting. All RV sites are full hook-ups or enjoy one of the new tent sites or deluxe cabins. At KOA they pride themselves on making sure that once you arrive you can stay active throughout the day with their many activities or just lounge around the pool letting go of the stresses of everyday life. Desert Hot Springs area Natural Therapeutic Hot Springs, discovered by Cabot Yerxa on a piece of land appropriately called Miracle Hill is where the campground derives its healing waters for our large swimming pool and three hot tub spas. These waters have transformed the Desert Hot Springs and Palm Springs area into the popular vacation areas they are today.
