Hi Steemit friends,
Today I'd like to share with you one of my favorite places for glam-ping. Joshua Tree does really feel like a magical place given by the gigantic rocks and their formations. Hope you guys enjoy this!
Joshua Tree a true desert wilderness is just a few hours outside Los Angeles, San Diego, Las Vegas, and Phoenix. About 1.4 million visitors come to the park each year to enjoy activities such as hiking, camping, photography, rock climbing, and simply enjoying the serene desert scenery.
One of the many great things of Joshua Tree is the plants. You can easily spot the Joshua Tree everywhere in the desert, also known as the Yucca brevifolia.
Not to mentioned you can also spot the beavertail pricklypear cactus.
Pencil cholla cactus is the most intimidating one for me...ouch!
Here's another of the common desert plants...
Joshua Tree is definitely a great place for photography, and my favorite climbing rocks :)
Did I mention the cool rock shapes!
Geologists believe the face of our modern landscape was born more than 100 million years ago. Molten liquid, heated by the continuous movement of Earth’s crust, oozed upward and cooled while still below the surface. These plutonic intrusions are a granitic rock called monzogranite.
This rocks are huge! and many people like to get to the top of them for the sunrise or sunset :)
"Why not take my pet with me?"....pets are certainly welcome at Joshua Tree.
Pets are natural hunters, so going to a place like Joshua Tree can be very fun and exciting.
On our firsts night there, we were able to watch one of the prettiest sunset I have ever seen.
and another one!
At night the sky is a glittering dome peppered with stars, planets, and passing meteors—but most people no longer get to see it. Our ancestors experienced a dark night sky. Cultures around the world told stories about the constellations and used the stars as a calendar.
and why not some smores' ? lol
Boasting some of the darkest nights in Southern California, Joshua Tree National Park offers many visitors the chance to admire the Milky Way for the first time in their lives.
In conclusion, if you ever have a chance to visit Joshua Tree, make sure to make enouh time to enjoy a night of stargazing. This place is a desert so make sure to plan accordingly to the time of the year. Hope you guys enjoyed this, feel free to drop a line below.
Let all you do be done in love, ❣️

@splendorhub Very Beautiful and Yes I am wondering how you did those jumping around Pictures ?? I guess Old Guys like me have to read UP and learn how you did that.
@splendorhub the jumping is easy! lol
OMG... that gif of you jumping made me so happy... it's so good!
This looks incredible... we've only been in the States for 2 years and have hardly had the time, money or leave to really explore it, but Joshua Tree is really high up the list.
Your photos are so great.
You don't have to tell me if you don't want to... but did you take that starscape photo at the end. Is it a Instagram thingy or did you do something super clever to create it.
Anywho, I love this post with all my heart. So much fun! Thanks heaps for sharing!
