Hey Billy,
I am not endorsing this trip...just one I found on the Internet-it sounds cool...maybe look around for others OR if you would like-I can ask my Mom where to go-she lives out there and is in charge of disaster preparedness for her community-surely she would know....let me know and I'll ask.

I hope everyone is OK from today's quake. I will be visiting the Palm Springs area in a few weeks and I would like to see the actual fault line in the earth. Does anyone know of an area maybe in Joshua Tree park or nearby where I can actually see the plate boundary?
