Day 39: Mojave Preserve, CA


Day 39:
November 4, 2015:
We assumed the visitor’s center would open at 10 am; turns out it was closed today so we took a few photos and left.  Historic train center was visitor’s center restored and they did a great job. The original date palms are the only existing landscaping.







 
Today we drove a whopping 26 miles to our next overnight spot within Mojave Preserve.  Sunrise rock is a war memorial and we camped there (allowed).  Then we took a hike to Teutonia Peak…3.6 miles and elevation gain 900 feet.  A cool day to hike.  Mojave preserve is home to the most dense stand of Joshua trees in the world.
Dinner and another short walk of maybe a mile.  One other camper here.





The End
