Summary

[edit]
Description this famously windy slot between the san jacinto and san bernardino mountains is a perfect place for harvesting wind. no wonder this spot is covered with turbines of all kinds and ages. on a windy day such as this, it's fun to see all the turbines going at full speed (except for the broken ones), and i am always wondering how much of the wind's energy this really extracts. it cannot be much, given the windy area and the size of the turbines.
