2-Day Joshua Tree Camping Adventure - Small Group Tour

After picking everyone up in Los Angeles, we head towards Joshua Tree National Park, where we will be camping for the night. There are great bouldering/rock climbing opportunities here, a number of hikes to abandoned mining operations, and great stargazing. Before we head into the park, we have a number of different options depending on what the season is and what fits best with the schedule for a particular trip. We may visit either Noah Purifoy's art installation, Environment of Sculptures, where you'll be free to explore the various amazing and creative art pieces that he constructed from reclaimed material Or we'll visit George van Tassel's Integratron, a parabolic dome constructed almost entirely of wood. Because of it's shape, sounds have interesting effects inside the dome; it was purportedly built to perform cell rejuvenation therapies shared with van Tassel by extra-terrestrials visiting from Venus. Regardless of what you believe about it's origins, the Integratron is one of the most unique sites to see and experience in California, and possibly even the world. When it is operating, we will visit here for a 1 hour sound bath/relaxation session and then head into the park for some hiking and to set up camp.

On the second day of our desert excursion we wake up in Joshua Tree and make a quick, delicious breakfast before hitting the trails for a couple of short hikes. We'll pack our lunches before we break camp in the morning and you'll be able to eat your lunch on the trail, or in the car on the way to the hot springs. The hikes vary, but we generally stop to hike the highest point in the park (Mt. Ryan, about 2 hours round-trip) or visit an abandoned mine and settlement (about 45 minutes each). Around mid-afternoon we'll arrive at the trail-head for our super secret hot spring and hike down about 1.5 miles to enjoy a soak until it's time to leave for Los Angeles. Relax in the car as we take you back to the pick-up point(s) where you'll arrive in time for dinner or a show at one of the many venues in LA.
