| Keys Key (elevation 5185 feet) is an overlook in the Little
San Bernardino Mountains. This view is looking southwest toward Mt. San
Jacinto across the Coachella Valley. The dark linear ridge in the valley
is a shutter ridge along the San Andreas Fault. San Jacinto Peak (elevation
10,804) is adjacent to the town of Palm Springs (elevation 150 feet). The
elevation differences between valley and the mountain peak is one of the
greatest vertical relief ranges in North America. |
