Palm Spring Station

This station built in 1858 by division agent, Warren F. Hall is commemorated by California State Historical Marker Number 639 Palm Spring.

It was used by the Union Army for water for its troops and their animals forage on the road to Fort Yuma during the American Civil War.

During March and April 2001, a surface survey and remote sensing and archaeological investigations including limited shovel test pit explorations were completed.

At the current time, it is unknown if or where the remains of Palm Spring Stage Station still exist.
