Joshua Tree National Park
Admission includedStanding among the gnarled, reaching arms of the park's namesake trees, you feel immediately that Joshua Tree National Park operates by its own rules. The Mojave and Colorado deserts collide here, producing a terrain that is equal parts harsh and quietly beautiful. Boulders the size of houses balance improbably on one another, and the silence between gusts of wind is total. Joshua Tree National Park rewards those who slow down enough to notice it.
