Sightseeing
If you miss the park, you aren't doing it right. An absolute MUST. Do a Google search to research best hikes (for what you are looking for). Our favorites are Baker Dam, and Hidden Valley. Favorite campground is Jumbo Rocks. Reminder to bring lots of water, and always follow safety precautions. Also, please do not disturb any Joshua Trees, as they are very delicate and also endangered. Enjoy!
