I've been to Joshua Tree 25 times now and have never visited the park in July. I gave it a shot but soon realized that July is not a good month to visit Joshua Tree. The temps were a little high in the south end, but fine in the north, but the park seemed empty of wildlife.

At night, however, the toads were out in full force. I saw hundreds of red spotted toads mating and courting one another. It would have been a good place to do a red spotted toad study. It ended up being the highlight of the trip. There were so many toads that I had to be careful not to step on them. I saw enough toads to quell my interest in them for a while.
