All of our National Parks are beautiful in their own way, and should always be kept that way. Everyone who visits these amazing gifts we're given to enjoy, and you are part of it while there. When your time is over Leave no Trace! I have to say that Joshua Tree has a groove of it's own. I've never been anywhere so unique and beautiful in so many different ways.

You still think so?

Just visited Joshua Tree for the first time a couple weeks back, absolutely fell in love with it. The towering rock stacks are unreal. Great video!

[@onegirloneworld]

Joshua Tree is one of the most beautiful places I've been!

[@initialdluvr]

I camp here a couple times throughout the year. Amazing place, many different places to check out. The weather is perfect in the spring time. It all started with a camping trip with some people from my Astronomy class. The night skies here are amazing if you go to the right place at the right time.

Cool place of Joshua

[@MuddyRuttzz]

We spent one of the coldest nights of my life there. It was beautiful!

[@JJF10101957]

Great Video! Joshua Tree has made me rethink how I judge beauty.

[@KittyKattails]

Took a day trip here on Christmas, AMAZING. I would def like to go again and get to do some camping. Lots of hiking to do, just be sure to bring lots of water. I even brought my little doggie, he loved it too.

Wesh Coast did you go to other spots in cali

[@VincenzoPlayGames]

I'm so excited to go in December!

[@nightworld1158]

This is an amazing video! I went to this national park before and now that I know more about it I want to go again! Also, this may be my poor counting skills, but I counted 56 national parks that you talked about.

[@nightworld1158]

Nope, there was 58. My bad.

[@GoTraveler]

Glad you enjoyed it! Joshua Tree is surreal!

[@alexwalsh585]

+58NationalParks I completely agree. I have had the chance to go camping and backpacking through Joshua Tree and it is an amazing place. I hope to be able to go there again!

[@Afrikaislife]

A history that excluded so many.

[@xhavaolivas8463]

Ruby Chung ikr. Like if natives didnt own those lands.

[@TimeTraveller010]

I am sure this National park has a special place for the first nations peoples. I am watching this from my lap top, in Australia, it suggests a ghostly and or creepy feel about it. I have never been to the U.S. Just the same greetings from Australia. And tell me I am not the only one that feels the way I do.

[@jonmacdonald5345]

No not really there were some pictograghs cave paintings and the government allowed Disney to mess them up for a movie!!!!! Many first nation's peoples lived there

[@stephenmontgomery4551]

Pretty sure there are Dogman and Bigfoot there as well I am going in 2 weeks

[@TimeTraveller010]

@@stephenmontgomery4551 Thanks. More than a generation ago my then girlfriend and I were driving through an isolated spot in Northern Australia, known as no mans land. We both experienced a weird sight almost a kilometer from the direction we were moving towards, in the car. It was a huge 'thing,' probably known as a yeti in the U.S. It walked from a clearing into dense forest. I will never forget it. It was monstrously huge, all black. The Australian outback is a strange place, I would never travel alone in that part of Australia!

[@stephenmontgomery4551]

@@TimeTraveller010 wow that's a badass siding/experience you had! . I can only imagine the Australian outback is probably a really dangerous an awesome place I would love to visit with only with a lot of armed people with experience there....Lol

[@mattonthemic]

The rock climbing is challenging but really fun. Would go again

[@domingodeanda233]

That was pretty damn good, thanks.

[@GoTraveler]

So glad you enjoyed, Domingo.

[@Yisethbrendlinger]

Thank you for this video, I'm arriving right now and I was hoping to learn a little bit about the place before to start vlogging :)

[@SossarHatarSverige]

Other then Death Valley bottom during a few extreme summer day highs the Sonora desert is much warmer the Mojave desert.

[@PvtLingo]

Yeah, I went backpacking here for a week in early November. Only got to about 70 degrees, maybe.

[@larryp3641]

Its around 4000ft in elevation. Cold at night in the winter.

[@interstateruler]

I usually see Joshua Trees along highway 58 in California. Never been to the National Park before.

[@larryp3641]

I'm in victorville.. the place is nice

@@larryp3641 That's awesome

[@jonathana.gaytan7018]

How can people dislike this video, I mean, this is something really beautiful and amazing

[@davidmaligo1020]

I know. I don't understand that

[@zivkovicable]

I've got an idea. According to this, history of the park started with the Mormons. Yeah, sure, white man was first, & nothing was here before them. Stolen land, then adding insult to injury.

[@dudidudidam9725]

Aku suka banget sama landscape ini

[@ellenanderson9535]

I remember as a kid thinking joshua tree park was ugly maybe it was really where I was heading to that I really loathed - my aunts house in palmdale yuk but I sure appreciate it now I love big rock formations - when you drive further north and lane in lone pine there is the alabama hills with all the rocks it's beautiful!

[@76np]

great video, thanks!

[@bestdrummer4607]

Very nice place.

[@thestraynewfie4198]

Is ok on a Motorcycle here in Feb?

[@rawrmeowscary]

+Phil Stagg Kind of a late response but its a great ride. I live upo near that area and often ride my bike through it. Stunning and fun everytime.

[@larryp3641]

Also lots of dirt roads

[@gruntball]

Actually, the Colorado Desert is the hottest place in the U.S/Mexico (apart from Death Valley).

[@jonmacdonald5345]

gruntball the park is in Both the Mojave and Colorado deserts!!!

you said that the joshua trees need to grow at the high elevations in the mojave? well...we have joshua trees growing in New Orleans here below or at sea level haha and they're doing fine

[@GoTraveler]

That's awesome Mike, thanks for sharing!

What happened to the natives who inhabited these lands?

I camped next to skull rock. It was honestly terrifying

[@rachelcopeland496]

Lolol I bet!

[@jorgecallico9177]

The Mojave Desert is not ''The hottest Desert in the world''. Nor even the hottest in California and the rest of the States. Instead it is the ''Colorado Desert'' just to the south that with it's lower elevation is even hotter than the Mojave. About the only argument in defense of the Mojave being warmer is when Death Valley gets included in the Mojave's domain. However Death Valley lies much lower in elevation than the rest of the Mojave. Sometimes well below sea level. Whereas the remainder of the Mojave stays above 2,500 ft in elevation. It actually records a little snow in the winter at some elevations which possess Joshua Trees. Meanwhile the Colorado Desert, lying at around 700 ft elevation to actually BELOW SEA LEVEL at Salton City, Is at least 5 to 10 degrees hotter in Summer. When it's a 115 F in Barstow? It's a 122 degrees F in Brawley. Also, a strong argument exists to include Death Valley into the ''Great Basin Deserts'' of Nevada and Utah. Either way, D/V is a fluke. It drains only into itself.

There are a lot more Hidden Treasures of Joshua Tree. It is a beautiful place even in the summertime. I stopped going because of all the the trash spread out through the park. When I discussed this with some of the park rangers they revealed that it came from the rock climbers. What a shame.

[@jonmacdonald5345]

Chris Jensen Sounds like those rock climbers been Smoking Rocks!! that's why I back Country it there see the real Joshua tree away from all the Riff Raff
