Few areas more vividly illustrate the contrast between the high and low deserts than. Joshua Tree National Park, America's newest national park. Below 3,000 feet, the Colorado Desert, occupying the eastern half of the park, is dominated by the abundant creosote bush, plus small stands of spidery ocotillo and jumping cholla cactus. The higher Mojave Desert is the special habitat of the undisciplined looking Joshua Tree. Standing like islands in a desolate sea, the oases provide dramatic contrast to their arid surroundings. The park also encompasses some of the most interesting geologic displays found in California. Exposed granite monoliths and rugged mountains of twisted rock testify to the power of the earth forces that shaped the land. The eastern entrance of the park is just 25 minutes east of Indio.
