angela and i had planned a three night hiking/camping trip to joshua tree
we left town monday morning and got to the southern entrance around noon or so
kept driving up to the split rock trailhead where we had some lunch
the split rock trail was a new one for me and we set out clockwise on the loop
found where we could extend the hike to face rock, then continued to skull rock
lots of people around skull rock but the rest of the hike wasn't all that crowded
took the discovery loop back to split rock trail and finished out the loop
lots of great rock formations, joshua trees and quite a few wildflowers
fun to do something new
drove back to cottonwood campground
set up camp and relaxed in the shade, eventually eating the sandwiches we brought rather than cook
low 50s at night with good stargazing
