The arid regions of the Joshua Tree National Park offer some of the best spots for stargazing and other activities like biking and hiking. Tourists flock to the Park for these reasons.
Two distinct desert ecosystems come together in Joshua Tree National Park- the Mojave and the Colorado. The land here is sculpted by strong winds and torrents of rain. Snowfall occurs occasionally at higher elevations. A variety of plants and animals thrive here.
The higher and cooler Mojave Desert is the special habitat of the Joshua tree after which the Park is named. Compared to Mojave, Colorado is seen as the low forest, that exists below 3000 ft. The temperature here is usually higher. The California occurs naturally in five oases in the Park.
