SIGHTS TO SEE
Joshua Tree National Park
Joshua Tree, California
Joshua Tree National Park is a vast protected area in southern California. It's characterized by rugged rock formations and stark desert landscapes. Named for the region’s twisted, bristled Joshua trees, the park straddles the cactus-dotted Colorado Desert and the Mojave Desert, which is higher and cooler. Keys View looks out over the Coachella Valley. Hiking trails weave through the boulders of Hidden Valley.
Noah Purifoy’s Outdoor Sculpture Park
Landers, California
Located down a dusty desert road just north of Joshua Tree, you will find this fascinating outdoor sculpture park. The late artist’s open-air exhibit is comprised of imposing structures of found objects, including old bicycles, cafeteria trays, and toilets. This exhibition is self-guided, but tours are available upon request in advance.
World Famous Crochet Museum
Yucca Valley, California
Located 5 minutes outside Joshua Tree National Park, the World Famous Crochet Museum is nestled inside a luminous green disused photo processing booth. The tiny museum is the creation of artist and musician Shari Elf and is stuffed with crocheted cuties she’s collected over the years including poodles, alligators, and unicorns. It's open all year round; even if Elf isn’t there, the door is kept unlocked and visitors are free to drop by and take a peep at the cuddlies on display.
