Default high winds in Palm Spring

Jim,


Thanks very much for the advice. The trip from Plao Alto to SLO is an
easy and nice flight. I will put the route you suggested into Voyager
and check it out. I have no problem going through Banning at
8500/9500, I just wanted a route that would have the most low
terrain. Personal preference on my part. Besides, I love flying
above the coast. And I do know the Indian casino building for ATC
pickup, I have driven by it on the freeway. BTW what do you fly?

8500 is the highest I've ever had to go to get a fairly smooth
ride, but if the Santa Ana's are blowing, I don't go near the
passes.

The winds have been calm and are forecast to stay that way for
a while.

I fly a 79 Tiger.
