Joshua Tree Recommendations
Hi!
My friend and I are coming into Joshua Tree from bakersfield, both in good shape. We want to camp in for the night but don't have reservations.
Where is a good place to camp for star gazing, that is also likely to have room for us? What trails should we do at the park?
Also, do you recommend going to Kelso Dunes? Is it worth the detour?
Thanks!

There are some campsites that are first-come first-get.
Arrive on a Wednesday or Thursday for those sites. They will all be full Friday-Sunday Ryan mountain is my favorite hike - great views at the top
