The Pink Motel was sold and closed a couple years ago. Sometimes there
might be a cooler in the area, but don't count on caches. Here's what I
know from last year:
B11 205.6 Snow Canyon Rd (faucet)Desert Water Agency faucet running
well B11 209.6 Cabazon (Tamarack Road, 4.5 mi W) Town
C1 210.6 "Pink Motel" sold and not available to hikers anymore. They
will NOT be able to accept mail drops. Please do not disturb the
property owners.
C1 213.4 Mesa Wind Farm
Sign posted on trail indicating shade & water available and a friendly
"Stop by and say Hi". 100 yds E, then 80 yds N. No faucet. MAY be small
pond by tanks - can someone verify?. Office open M-F 6-2.
So, There's water on trail 5 miles before the old Pink Motel and last
year there was water 3 miles after it. After that, in season there
should be water in Whitewater River in 5 miles and certainly at the
crossing 10 miles from the wind farm.
The Whitewater Trout Farm was bought by the Wildlands Conservancy. There
was talk last year that they might develop a campsite for thruhikers,
and I think a couple hikers got water there last year, although it is
off trail a little bit.
