A Google Street View Survey of Yucca Valley Signs

May 18th, 2015

Below is a brief and low-quality image tour of signs and buildings along the Twentynine Palms Highway in Yucca Valley (California State Route 62, SR 62). All of these places can be seen on the way to Joshua Tree when traveling from the west.

Only one of the roof jogs seen below is the result of Street View image stitching.

Capture-Jelly-Donut

Jelly Donut sign. The best Street View vantage opposes the sun, but a great sign even when shaded. Note the upside-down 7 arrow and arrowhead with a similar line weight.
