San Jacinto Aerial
Here's a still-snowy San Gorgonio Mountain photobombing a mostly-dry San Jacinto Peak, as seen Wednesday on the way from LAX to Phoenix, Arizona.
This shot really gives a good sense of how compact the San Jacintos are. They're just one mighty column of granite shooting up 11,000 vertical feet over Coachella Valley—a classic "Island in the Sky" mountain landscape.

But the East Side beckons as well. (?)
