Welcome to Joshua Tree National Park.
It's a place full of amazing wilderness...
...mysterious artifacts...
...And deadly sharp cactus.
Mmm, cactus!
When we hiked off-road, we stumbled upon old stone walls and rusted-out tin cans.
Eventually we discovered the remains of civilization.
It was an old abandoned mine, far from the main roads.
Steve took a look down the mine shaft.
I took a look at the old machinery.
...And the amazing view from the hill above.
