The Mojave Desert Land Trust announced recently that it will add trail markers and signage to a 12-mile trail that connects Yucca Valley and Desert Hot Springs. With the help of Joshua Tree National Park, the Bureau of Land Management, and the Coachella Valley Mountains Conservancy, the MDLT will add trail markers and new signage to the Long Canyon trailhead. A spokeswoman said it hopes the signs will make the seldom-used trail more easily accessible. Long Canyon connects Desert Hot Springs and Yucca Valley. A grand opening is tentatively slated for the spring.
