Photography by Mike Mander | Joshua Tree NP - Day 1

Joshua Tree National Park - Day 1

May 20, 2015

On the first day in Joshua Tree National Park, I hiked the Hidden Valley trail (photos 1-24), then wandered around the Hall of Horrors area (25-34), then finished the day by watching sunset from the Cap Rock Nature Trail (35-40). I decided to do a self-timer shot and be in photo 7, since I couldn't believe the massive size of that Yucca plant! It may look like it's in the foreground, closer to the camera, but I am essentially right beside it, the same distance away. Its blooming stalk was bigger than me!
