TRAVEL INFO: We will be staying at Cascade Trails Mustang Sanctuary.  It is located about 5 minutes from the park entrance of Indian Cove.  They can be searched on Google Maps. TOWN AMMENITIES: Joshua Tree and Twentynine Palms have a few small markets. You can get all the basics, but very few specialty items. Yucca, has many large stores/restaurants available. You can grab food in town and bring it to the campground if you don't want to cook. Showers are available at Coyote Corner for $4 in Joshua Tree. Nomads is a climbing/hiking shop in town, should you forget anything. CAMP LIFE: We will be in a few adjacent campsites with plenty of room for you to pitch a tent or car camp.  They also have several Glamping options available should you wish not to camp. There are several Picnic tables and fire rings there. We will be providing wood for a fire each night, and a few stoves/pots, aluminum foil, pans, etc., for anyone to use. I would suggest bringing a cooler to keep your food items and at least a cup, bowl, spoon. There are toilets, fire pits, and cell service at the campground, but no water.  We will have some large jugs for the group, but please bring extra bottles/containers for yourself, if possible. WHAT TO BRING: Camping gear- sleeping bag, pad, tent, camp chair Clothing- November can be very hot...or cool, depending on the weather at the time. Bring clothing for either instance...sun protectant clothing for being in the sun and warm clothes and rain jacket just in case.
