Very nice cable cars, although not sure I like that they rotate. I wanted to hang onto the rails, but they move! You get up there pretty quickly and despite high winds the day we went the cars didn't swing like you'd imagine. The trails are gorgeous, the views are breathtaking. And such a nice cool temp at the top vs. down in the valley. Be prepared and wear layers! And it does get windy!

If you visit the Palm Springs area, the Aerial Tramway is a must see. The trip up and down has breathtaking views of the valley floor and surrounding mountains. At the top there are two restaurants, one with casual dining food, the other with a more upscale and pricier menu. Both are excellent and highly recommended. The real reason to go up, however, are the hiking trails with at least a couple of loops of over a mile each. The refreshing cool air on a hike is a welcome change from the heat of the valley during the warm summers. Don't miss this attraction.
