Wind is one of the most defining natural forces in the Imperial Valley. It moves across the California & Mexico desert without regard for political boundaries, carrying heat, dust, and seasonal change with equal force on both sides.

Located 30 miles east of the Calexico + Mexicali border crossing, Rastro del Viento (Trail of the Wind) becomes a place of pause where waiting, breathing, and transitioning are treated with dignity.
