The arid expanse of the Imperial Valley meets the rising slopes of the Chocolate Mountains in this modern survey of the California desert. Central to the landscape is the Coachella Canal, a vital water artery that defines the boundary between the cultivated valley floor and the high desert terrain. The area is anchored by the settlement of Hot Mineral Spa, a unique desert community situated at the foot of the mountains.
