[pct-l] hot foot

[Steve Musil <smusil@angnewspapers.com>]

I'm planning to begin hiking north at Palms to Pines Highway on Sunday. The 
forecast high temperature for Palm Springs that day is 111. My questions 
are: 1) how much cooler (if any) will the trail at elevation be from that in 
Palm Springs?, and 2) how much shade can I expect to find from San Jacinto 
to San Gorgonio?

please advise,
