How long is Palm Springs Aerial Tramway? How tall are the support towers of Palm Springs Aerial Tramway?
A google search for "palm strings aerial tramway" "eigth wonder of the world" only returns results promoting the tramway. We need a reliable source calling the tramway the 8th wonder of the world (specifically, not a source promoting the tramway). Sagsaw 23:30, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
The most important question that everybody would ask is: How long does it take to get up there? The article fails to answer that.-- dunnhaupt ( talk) 14:48, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
The trip has been likened in terms of geologic and climatic change to a motor trip from Sonora to the Canadian tundra.
Aside from the fact that this statement is unsourced and phrased in passive voice, it's inaccurate to describe the environment at the top of the tramway as being like the Canadian tundra. Tundra landscapes are treeless and typically have permafrost. San Jacinto Peak has trees even at its summit--and that summit is more than 2000 feet higher than the top of the tramway. 206.208.105.129 ( talk) 20:07, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

One aspect of the history is missing; the 1967 movie " The Cool Ones" had a musical number ("High") performed on the Tramway... or a least a set made to look like the tramway. --------- User:DanTD ( talk) 21:01, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
I’m relatively certain that the aerial tramway is in the Mojave Desert not the Sonoran. The Sacramento Bee reference must have been wrong. The Sonoran gives way east of here at the Colorado River and enters a Transition Zone sometimes called the Colorado Desert. Effort becoming the Mojave. 65.197.217.249 ( talk) 19:45, 14 November 2021 (UTC)
