Joshua Tree In December?

We have done Death Valley a few times and it tends to get crowded that week, so it is out. We have never been to Joshua Tree and are considering that. Does it also get busy that week? If we do go there, what are the must see/must do places? Any other ideas for a one week trip out of central CA in winter?

We also enjoyed our visit to Agua Caliente Park in Anza Borrego. Nice hot springs & showers for a more formal camping experience.

There are three entrances to the park two are off of state route 62, the main entrance or west entrance is the first one if you are coming from the west. Access is about 5 miles from the town of J Tree the second and less crowded is the east entrance. If you’re coming from the west you drive through the town of J Tree and follow the sings to the east entrance. The third entrance that I have never been to is the south entrance looks pretty cool and probably the least crowded as far as climbers go.
J Tree is great camping in the winter, if you are going after Christmas be sure to stop at wall-mart (wally world) and pick up a few Christmas trees for cheap they may even give them to you I forget, but they make a great bon fire for about five minutes.
Enjoy

Don't blame me, DD started the puns. I just jumped on the bandwagon.

DD, are you saying The Streets Have No Names in Joshua Tree? I know you mentioned doing a winter trip south but won't join us for this one. That's alright, we're going With or Without You. We will hit JTNP for a couple of days but then are heading to Anza Borrego for the majority of the trip. Anywhere we go down there is In God's Country.

I'm not going to be taking any trips until DV. I find that I actually have some work to do.
