In the summer of 1935, Francis Crocker's dream of a tramway to the cool summit of Mount San Jacinto was conceived, initially met with skepticism and dubbed "Crocker’s Folly." Despite setbacks, the dream finally gained traction in 1945 with the establishment of the Mount San Jacinto Winter Park Authority, steering the project towards realization!
The construction of the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, completed in 1963, stands as a significant engineering achievement! The first tram ride, attended by local and state dignitaries, marked the culmination of Crocker's enduring vision and the tramway's recognition as an historical civil engineering landmark!
Over the decades, the tramway has seen continuous innovation, including the introduction of the world's largest rotating tram cars in 2000 and a major renovation in 2023 to update facilities and restore the Mid-Century architectural vision!
Celebrating its 60th anniversary last 2023, the tramway has since transported over 20 million visitors, offering a unique and breathtaking experience that bridges historical ingenuity with the natural splendor of the San Jacinto Mountains!
