Joshua Tree National Park is located in southeastern California. Declared a U.S. National Park in 1994 when the U.S. Congress passed the California Desert Protection Act, it previously had been a National Monument since 1936. The park was named for the Joshua tree (Yucca brevifolia) forests native within its boundaries. It covers a land area of 790,636 acres, an area slightly larger than the state of Rhode Island. A large part of the park, roughly 400,000 acres,is a designated wilderness area. Straddling the San Bernardino County/Riverside County border, the park includes parts of two deserts, each an ecosystem whose characteristics are determined primarily by elevation: the higher Mojave Desert and lower Colorado Desert. The Little San Bernardino Mountains run through the southwest edge of the park and are stunning when snow covered making a wonderful contrast between desert and mountain life in the southwest. This park is beautiful in its contrasts and is popular with campers, climbers, hikers and photographers.
