About Tram Boulders:
An extensive boulderfield located near the top of the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway. A 15 minute tram ride takes you from 2643' at the bottom (Valley Station) to 8515' at the top (Mountain Station). Due to the elevation the climbing season runs spring through fall with summer often being breezy and pleasant. Several main areas have been developed but a walk in many directions will likely turn up some gems as well. A beautiful place to boulder and escape from it all for a few hours or more. |
