Caption: Located just a few hours outside Los Angeles, San Diego, Las Vegas and Phoenix, Joshua Tree in California is a true desert wilderness. Two distinct environments -- the Mojave and the Colorado deserts -- come together in the park. Joshua trees dwell in the higher elevations of the Mojave, while creosote bushes and cholla cactus dominate the lower Colorado desert.
