| Joshua Tree National Park is immense, nearly 800,000 acres, and infinitely variable. It can seem unwelcoming, even brutal during the heat of summer when, in fact, it is delicate and extremely fragile. This is a land shaped by strong winds, sudden torrents of rain, and climatic extremes. Rainfall is sparse and unpredictable. Streambeds are usually dry and waterholes are few. Viewed in summer, this land may appear defeated and dead, but within this parched environment are intricate living systems waiting for the opportune moment to reproduce. The individuals, both plant and animal, that inhabit the park are not individualists. They depend on their entire ecosystem for survival. |

There are three park entrance stations: • The West Entrance is located five miles south of the junction of Highway 62 and Park Boulevard at Joshua Tree Village. • The North Entrance is in Twentynine Palms, three miles south of the junction of Highway 62 and Utah Trail. • The South Entrance near Cott |
