HIKING IN JOSHUA TREE NATIONAL PARK DURING SUMMER DAYS

As spring weather turns into summer weather, it seems like we go from one extreme to the other without any breathing room. Plans made to go hiking in Joshua Tree National Park may now seem a bit more difficult. But if you canā€™t get that hike out of your mind, remember, where thereā€™s a will, thereā€™s a way. Start early in the morning when the day is cool. Select hikes that will avoid wandering around in the heat of the day. Temperatures in the upper elevations run 10 to 15 degrees cooler than down below. Carry enough water to get you through your hike and protect yourself by wearing a hat, long sleeves, sunglasses, and sunscreen. If an early day in the Park is out of the question, the rule is better late than never. Come after the heat has passed, just before sunset when the desert begins to cool. A night under the stars is just the ticket. For more information on the best hikes to do in the heat of summer, call 760-367-5522. For Z107.7 this is Park Ranger Pam Tripp, inviting you to experience your American landscape.
