OASIS





We checked out the 1000 Palms Oasis that is located about 6 miles from our home. It is a lush site with hundreds of ancient palms, running water and lots of critters. It was created by the 350 million acre underground aquafier where the San Andreas Fault exposes and catches the water. There is a chain of these oasis all along the Fault. On our hike we did see a mountain lion and we quickly headed in the opposite direction!
