Eastern Mojave Vegetation | County Road S22, San Diego County, California |
Tom Schweich |
County Route S22 begins at a junction with County Highway S2 in San Diego County and runs eastward as Montezuma Valley Road through the rural community of Ranchita. It enters Anza-Borrego Desert State Park and then descends for approximately 12 miles (19 km) to the desert community of Borrego Springs, offering magnificent views of the Borrego Valley as it winds steeply down Montezuma Grade. As it enters Borrego Springs, the highway turns right onto Palm Canyon Drive. In the middle of Borrego Springs, it passes through the only large traffic circle in San Diego County. It continues east, changes its name to the Borrego-Salton Seaway, enters Imperial County, runs through Anza-Borrego State Park and ends at a junction with State Route 86 in Salton City, a community on the shore of the Salton Sea. The route was established in 1968 (Wikipedia) | |
