On The Trail: Joshua Tree

"Their stiff and ungraceful form makes them to the traveler the most repulsive tree in the vegetable kingdom," wrote explorer John C. Fremont when he traveled through the California desert in 1844. Today, travelers find the Joshua tree - as found in Joshua Tree National Park - uncommonly beautiful. Conor Knighton reports.

Good short story. I went years ago ultimately after learning about the “tree” from U2.
