I worked and lived in Palm Springs at Smoke Tree Stables and for the Desert Riders, what an amazing place. It's incredibly! I highly recommend going for a visit. P.S. I LOVE YOU!
1.5 million gallons of water per day and they expect us to believe it's groundwater from snowmelt!? It's been 80 years of a continuous flow of 1.5 million gallons of water every day! That cannot be from rain and snowmelt!
There is 10000 feet of mountain above that tunnel thats thousands of years old. Yes that is indeed groundwater. I don't know why you don't understand that. Groundwater is everywhere and under intense pressure.
Fun facts: That tunnel goes even further under the city of Perris and dumps out at Lake Mathews. This is a no human contact lake that has MASSIVE fish in it. I would fly low over it and could see the fish! There is also an abandoned Lockheed missile test site at the base of Mt. San Jacinto. I had an engine fail and had to land my plane there. Many years ago a mentally ill woman walked off on the mountain and disappeared. Years later a skeleton was found in a small cave. A retired cop remembered the unsolved case and called in his suspicions that the skeleton was hers, it was. A dating couple got lost on the mountain and found a skeleton in a tent. It was the remains of a hiker that also got lost and stuck in a box canyon and died a year earlier. The couple was eventually saved. Their story is on RU-vid. The back side of the mountain is where they filmed the “kicked the bucket scene” for the movie It’s a mad mad world.
We had a local paper and one of the gentleman stated that he worked on that tunnel, he spoke of the water rushing up and they had to climb out and he stated that whenever there was a fight, fist up and no one turned their back. Rough and tough bunch of guys.
