The Thousand Palms Oasis in the Coachella Valley Preserve is yet another amazing hike. Like the Mecca Hills area, it sits squarely on the San Andreas Fault, but in this case the faultline created an amazing Palm oasis, complete with marshes and small lakes. Looking at it, you are hard-pressed to remember that you’re in the middle of the desert (but then again, that’s what an oasis is, after all). 🙂
