Canuck2 Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 We found that one of the most interesting sites near Palm Springs was Joshua Tree National Park, which exhibits a wonderful variety of rock formations and vegetation. Here's a single Joshua tree, which is apparently really a member of the yucca family: A forest: An erosional feature - the granitic rock has weathered along joints and left this round 'rock' perched pretty much in its original position: Another neat formation, aptly named skull rock: One road in Joshua Tree Park takes you to a high ridge where (on a clear day) you get a great view of the Coachella Valley, the valley where Palm Springs and surrounding communities are situated. On this day, the weather was particularly foul with high winds, rain, and cold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
