Where Two Worlds Meet


That is right. No April fools joke ahah.

 This next segment comes to you from both the Mojave and Colorado Deserts (No not the State of Colorado, but instead a Desert that is sandwhiched between the coastal ranges of California, and the Mojave and Sonoran Deserts).
Seems like the Sidekick and I was intrigued by something
How can you possibly be two places at once you may wonder? Well.. Joshua Tree National Park covers an are of California that spans from part of the Mojave down into the Colorado desert which sits at a much lower elevation. This ecosystem that many people would expect to be barren is actually teeming with biodiversity.

Can anyone spot the animal?

This was an unexpected find


There is no suprise why the Mojave is called the "high desert"


Hey there little guy!

Did I mention that we became Junior Rangers for yet another National Park? I highly encourage any visitor at least try it out. For one it is educational and teaches you a lot about the individual park and secondly it makes you look for things that you otherwise would've never searched for.

Stay tuned for more!
