Joshua
Tree National Park
Beginning 6.5 miles (10.5 km) north of Cottonwood Visitor Center, this
dead-end dirt road runs along the edge of Pinto Basin, crosses several dry
washes, and winds through canyons in the Eagle Mountains. The first nine
miles (14.5 km) are within the park boundary. Beyond that point is Bureau of
Land Management land and a number of side roads. Several old mines are
located near these roads but may be too dangerous to approach.
