Joshua tree national park 🌵
Joshua Tree National Park gets its name from being the natural habitat of the distinctive Joshua trees. The western part of the park not only features dense clusters of Joshua trees, but also boasts exposed rocky hills and unique geological formations. Scattered giant boulders 🪨 attract rock climbing enthusiasts from all over, while many campers ⛺️ also spend weekends here enjoying the serene desert atmosphere. The eastern section is lower in elevation, surrounded by the Colorado Desert, and is home to a spectacular cactus garden 🌵 filled with rare and fascinating species. For a day trip, we highly recommend ending your visit at Keys View for sunset—the scenery is absolutely breathtaking! 🧡 From there, you can see sweeping views of the mountains and the Salton Sea, creating a truly uplifting and expansive feeling. tips: 📶 Cell service is very limited—download offline maps in advance! 🌞 The climate is extremely dry—bring plenty of drinking water. 💨 It can be very windy at Keys View—dress warmly to stay comfortable. 🚻 There are basic restroom facilities available near major viewpoints. #JoshuaTree #JoshuaTreeNationalPark #LosAngelesWeekend #LA #JoshuaTreeAdventure #DesertLife
