Seasons change the facade of the land at Joshua Tree National Park. Spring presents carpets of yellow flowers, and summer shows a shimmering landscape of rising heat waves. Winter, with its occasional sprinkling of snow, can change that same landscape into a fantastic science-fiction scene, dominated by Joshua tree arms.
Joshua Tree National Park in southeastern California, set aside in 1936 to preserve a variety of animal and plant life including the unique Joshua trees, became a National Park in 1994.
