I made this trip in March, 2016. Video shot with a Brinno TLC-200 Pro time-lapse camera, mounted on my roof with a homemade magnetic case. I travel with two Brinno cameras - one facing forward, the other in reverse. Sometimes the reverse camera captures better video (fewer raindrops and bugs hit the rear-view lens).

5 Fun Things to Do in Joshua Tree National Park
With its Dr. Seuss-like Joshua trees stretching out across an almost lunar landscape of giant granite boulders and rolling mountains, Joshua Tree National Park is like something out of a children's story book. It's not uncommon to hear people using terms like magical or spiritual to describe how they feel about this park. Visitors come here to walk or hike among the trees, climb the towering rock walls, camp under the stars, capture the beauty in photographs, or simply soak up the tranquility of the desert.
Located where the Mojave and Colorado Deserts meet, the park has a complex landscape, with profoundly different appearances and vegetation depending on the elevation. Some areas are covered with mature Joshua trees as far as the eye can see, and others are completely devoid of these trees but offer their own unique beauty. Well positioned nature paths, hiking trails, and vehicle pullouts are spread throughout the park, providing easy access to this stunning landscape. Let's see five things to do in Joshua Tree National Park in California.
1. Hidden Valley Nature Trail and Day Use Area
2. Keys View
3. Barker Dam Nature Trail
4. Ryan Mountain Hike
5. Cholla Cactus Garden

DETAILED VIDEO SUMMARY:
I started out the morning with a short hike to Arch Rock just outside of White Tank Campground. I then headed over to hike the Desert Queen Mine and Wash Hike, which was actually captured in a separate video (link: before having a tailgating lunch out of my Subaru Forrester in the Jumbo Rocks Campground. I was hoping to stop in somewhere to watch some rock climbers but I didn't see any this time around. Next stop, we checking in to my AirBNB in 29 Palms. For this particular trip, I found AirBNB to be the best lodging option for my needs, although there is plenty of camping in Joshua Tree. I finish of the day with the best sunset hike in Joshua Tree, the short but challenging hike of Ryan Mountain. On the way back to the AirBNB I stopped for just a little nighttime photography before heading in for an early night and early morning. The next day, I explored Skull Rock, Keys View and exited the park via the Cottonwood entrance stopping to explore Cholla Cactus Garden on my way out. This was such an enjoyable trip to Joshua Tree and I hope to return shortly to do even more hiking!

1. Arch Rock
Arch Rock Joshua Tree desert loop trail is a short .3.7 mile loop takes you to one of the most famous rock formations in Joshua Tree National Park. The fun and easy hike and scrambling can be done by your whole family and can easily be done in 20mins or much longer depending on how long you're exploring the boulders.
2. Barker Dam Trail -
Hikers of all abilities will love this 1.1-mile loop Barker Dam Hike through the Wonderland of Rocks in Joshua Tree NP. If you’re lucky enough to be traveling in the winter or spring you’ll be treated to a rare sight in the desert, water. This Barker Dam was constructed in the 1900s and provides the only opportunity to photograph reflecting rock formations in its still waters. I suggest you arrive early and after a decent rain to ensure the best photograph results. However, if you’re here in the winter it can get quite cold and you may want to hike this trail in the middle of the day.
3. Ryan Mt Trail
If you're up for a little more of a challenge this 3 mile out and back hike gains over 1,000ft of elevation and gives you a birds-eye view of most of Joshua Tree National Park.
4. Keys View
Keys View is a fantastic vista that rests on the top of the Little San Bernardino Mountains and provides panoramic views of Palms Springs and the Coachella Valley. Its easy access by car makes puts this high on the list of things to do in Joshua Tree. From Keys View, you’ll be able to see the San Andreas Fault. You can also catch a view of Southern California’s two highest mountains, Mount San Jacinto and Mount Gorgonio. On a clear day, you can see California’s largest lake, the Salton Sea.
5. Rock Climbing -
Rock climbing in Joshua Tree National Park is world class and offers traditional crack climbing and bouldering. This high desert monzogranite climbing mecca is famous for its traditional-style crack, slab, and steep face climbing.
The Joshua Tree's has almost 800,000 acres of crack climbing. Thousands of options for sport climbers, slab climbers and a good number of multi-pitch classic routes. There are more than 10,000 climbing routes, 2,000 boulder problems and hundreds of rock formations to scramble on.
6. Cholla Cactus Garden - Joshua Tree
7. Wall Street Mill Trail
This easy 3-mile out-and-back to the Wall Street Mill
8. Hidden Valley
Hidden Valley is one of my favorite parts of Joshua Tree. The 1-mile stroll amongst the boulders and Joshua Trees is fun for the whole family. If you're up for a little more adventure I suggest going climbing.
9. The Chasm Of Doom -
The Chasm Of Doom a scramble, squeeze, craw and climb inside a granite maze amongst giant boulders. This secret set of tunnels and passageways is not for the faint of heart or the claustrophobic and It requires you to be comfortable climbing, scrambling and bouldering in the dark please exercise extreme caution.
How to find the Chasm of Doom -
10. Stargazing
My favorite places to see stars are Ryan Mt, Arch Rock, and Keys View
11. Keys Desert Queen Ranch
You need to book a tour to see this ranch. Be sure to book in advance at the Visitor Center.
12. Lost Horse Mine
13. Geology Road
14. Skull Rock and Jumbo Rocks
If you're short on time Skull Rock can be seen from the road but that doesn't really do it justice. This 1.7-mile stroll in the park is part of Jumbo Rocks and the highlight of the rock formations is Skull Rock. Sure it's just rock formation that looks like a Skull...
15. 49 Palms Oasis Trail
16. Hall Of Horrors
