Prevailing Winds

Just a quick entry today as I'm leaving at 5am to drive to five of our furthest flung radio sites in the desert. Hopefully I'll get some interesting photographs, especially at the first one, Joshua Tree National Park. I took this photograph at the top of the Palm Springs Tramway. We've all heard of prevailing winds, but how hard must the wind blow to shape a tree like this? One thing I do know is, I would not like to be in one of the cable cars when this kind of wind is blowing!
