Today was a great day of fun and adventure in Joshua Tree National Park. We drove from Palm Springs to visit the park which took an hour. We Parked at Barker Damn and then rode our bikes up Queen valley rode and then over sheep pass into Hidden Valley. The bike ride was spectacular and a lot of fun. We started out on a dirt rode then unto the park paved rode. Both easy to navigate and a great ride.The park is really spectacular. I want to return and camp here some time. So many wonderful hikes, bike rides, painting opportunities and photography. The park was full of rock climbers and it is one of the best rock climbing places around, not that I am interested in Rock Climbing:)- sure is fun to watch, though!
