No Swimming, Joshua Tree National Park

No Swimming, Joshua Tree National Park, originally uploaded by SoLostAndFound / Bill Lindsay.

This is on the hike to the dam. This was really funny to me, but there are signs that the water does get out this far. It gets to be a good size lake based on the pics that I have found from others on flickr.

Thanks for looking.

Joshua Tree is a new favorite. I went there when I was up in Yucca Valley to see some of the folks I call on up there. They were in a meeting and rather then drive down, I went to see the park. This will take a few days to post.

First up, Barker Dam.

Thanks for looking.

Just Below Barker Dam, Joshua Tree National Park, California

Just below the dam, you would never guess you were in Joshua Tree and the desert. Wait until I post Big Morongo Canyon Reserve. You will be surprised that the desert can be so lush. These are watering areas for the cattle and sheep that were brought up here. When it rains, the dam can get a real little lake going.



Thanks for looking.
