Wonderland of Rocks - 4.19.2015
A photo of our GPS track for our hike in Wonderland of Rocks in Joshua Tree National Park... 3.25 miles roundtrip, gaining 305 feet of elevation.

The parking lot for Wonderland of Rocks is not paved... although there is a restroom... and there is no official trail sign.
|
In less than a quarter mile of hiking we reached the Wonderland Ranch... and the path leading to the Wonderland of Rocks is behind the ranch.
|
Awesome rock formations start immediately.

The Astro Dome is popular with rock climbers.

Denali Girl and tomman will wait for us in the shade of the huge boulder in the center of the photo.

Now we have to find a way back down to tomman and Denali Girl.

Where to now?
|
Now I've got a route.
|
Lots of ups and downs in this sea of boulders.
