We're talkin' the California desert, O.B., where the sun shines 354 days each year . . . Palm Springs and the surrounding parts: Indio, Palm Desert, Indian Wells, La Quinta and Rancho Mirage.

And I was just in Palm Springs for New Years. OMG.

So this refers to reading the "lay of the land" in a mountainous area with a compass? Is that right? Google earth maybe for topographical maps?

These guys are good and thorough too.

Indio is down valley. World around you seems flat but is actually tilted slightly down valley.

It occurs to me that your job description has gotten a lot longer of late. Adding surveyor to everything else you guys do. Wind reader, confidence whisperer etc etc etc etc etc.

Good luck at the Hope if that is where you are at.

And all the best for the coming season.
