Jepson Field Book volume 30 page 106
Description:
Twenty-nine Palms Mohave Desert - Tallest palm in Eastern grove 70 ft. h., 8 ft. 4 in. circ. Another one 6 ft. 9 in. circ. and 55 ft. h. There is only one small one which has its chaplet of leaves, that is dead leaves turned downward. - Pluchea sericea is with the palms, the only place I have seen it since the Mohave River. It is a water indicator. ::::::::: 16 May 1914 There is no "dry lake" here as said by Mendenhall in "Desert Watering Places", but I can see a dry lake n.w. some six or eight miles: Now that I am higher I see a small dry lake, 10 acres, maybe a mile n.w. of the Palms. - From Rabbit Springs and the Granite Mts. there is a broad valley running easterly, bounded on the south by the San Bernardino Mts. and the Cottonwood Mts, on the north by Goat Mt, Ord Mt. Rodman Mt. Clark or White Mt., Bulliton Mts., Sheephole Mts etc. Of course the valley is not strictly continuous
