Whitewater: I-10 : (371) East of SR-62

About location

Tucked into San Gorgonio Pass, Whitewater is a place whose character is shaped by wind funneled between the San Bernardino and San Jacinto mountains. The small Riverside County community stands beside the Whitewater River and Interstate 10, on the principal overland corridor linking the Inland Empire with the Coachella Valley. Rows of wind turbines across the pass form part of one of California’s most recognizable wind-energy landscapes, while wide, gravelly washes and desert scrub mark the transition toward the Colorado Desert. The pass has long directed travel through this mountain barrier; today it carries road, rail and energy infrastructure alongside open desert ground. Whitewater’s setting is defined less by a conventional town center than by this broad, hard-working passage through Southern California.

City Whitewater

Whitewater occupies the mouth of Whitewater Canyon in California’s San Gorgonio Pass, between the San Bernardino and San Jacinto mountains. The Whitewater River descends from the San Bernardino Mountains here before crossing the dry floor of the Coachella Valley, giving this small Riverside County community a setting distinct from nearby desert resorts. Whitewater Preserve protects river habitat and canyon trails, and incorporates the site of the former Whitewater Trout Farm. Interstate 10 follows the pass, a principal Southern California route between the Los Angeles Basin and the desert.

California occupies a long Pacific coastal belt in the United States. Its terrain ranges from the Sierra Nevada and the fertile Central Valley to deserts in the southeast and the rugged shores of the Pacific Ocean. The state includes both Mount Whitney, the highest point in the contiguous United States, and extensive protected lands such as Yosemite National Park. California’s cities have exerted worldwide influence through film, technology, agriculture, and music; Hollywood remains an enduring symbol of the American screen industry. Its scale means climates and local character can change dramatically from one county to the next. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of California.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
