The city of Palm Springs serves as the focal point for this survey of the western Coachella Valley, where the urban grid meets the dramatic rise of the San Jacinto Mountains. To the east, the Palm Springs International Airport dominates the flatlands, while the western reaches transition into the protected slopes of the San Bernardino National Forest. Local heritage is anchored by sites like Agua Caliente Spring and several burial grounds, including the Jane Augustine Patencio Cem and Murray Cem.
