Some Joshua Trees are very tall and impressive, others are short and twisted while some are dead or dying. Joshua Trees are the long-living people of the Mojave Desert, capable of living for about 500 years. They grow only in this desert too.

Gorgeous shots. Joshua Trees sound pretty hardy and impressive.
Ahhhhhhhhhh the mountains… wonderful!
Neat!
Thanks, they are so amazing, Annmarie!
I didn’t realize how tall they get.
You bet! There is one in a front yard just north of me that’s really huge, too huge for my little front yard.
I do so love nature, landscape shots.
Thanks, Rebecca, the photos never do the area real justice. On a warm day with little wind, stand and be silent. You will hear birds , bushes rustling with critters. Jackrabbits. Ground squirrels. Wonderful. I have yet to see a desert tortoise or any snakes though.
That second shot is marvelous! Only Nature visible…
Thank you! The tallest trunk on the right has got to be twenty feet tall, so impressive to walk through these beautiful trees!
