Some drone footage from a flight near the Mormon Rocks...

 

Joshua Tree National Park...the weekend after Christmas...

       

                             Despite the crowds...

                         There is  enough space...

   ....to find a quiet place.
                                                         

Some old mine entrances- Doran Canyon in the Calico Mountains...

   On my next trip, I will take a closer look.

Wildflowers...

    Joshua Tree National Park.  I shot this photo in 2023.   

Will we have a spectacular wildflower season in 2026? 

Storm Approaching: Calico Mountains...

 

If these scars could talk...

    The heavily scarred Calico Mountains.

Hidden washes and trails...

 Who knows what secrets lie hidden in these hills?

Calico Mountains.
