Amazing Joshua Tree National Park

Friday Adam, LeAnna and I left for a 4 day trip to Joshua Tree National Park.  The original plan had been to travel to Great Basin National Park in Nevada, but a cold front/rainstorm blew threw and put a damper on that direction.  JT turned out to be a more than adequate substitute.  It was a great time.

  4. Looks like a great trip! I love J-tree. The landscape is incredible and the climbing is unique. It's great to live in a country that has such incredible geography and biology.
