Some magnificent cactus out there!

They are called Joshua trees and you cannot even cut them down.

Why can't you cut down a Joshua Tree?

Why would you want to?

i believe up there wher the op is talking about is part of the joshua tree nat'l park/forest. one or the other. so they would be protected, but i concur, why would you want to.

that is a beautiful area up there. the apple valley area is pretty also. we like the drive from china lake to bakersfield alog the verde river. cant remember the road but it is about half way back to four corners from china lake then head west and it brings you into the ne. side of bakersfield. very nice drive if you ever have the time.

We rode through Joshua Tree on a rental bike a few years ago. Incredible.

I never get tired of seeing Joshua trees...they seem so pleasingly alien to this Michigander.

Building houses you had to move them. Things might have changed because of all the building in the high desert, but I don't think so at this time
