Preserving the Desert

The Joshua Tree National Monument was officially established in 1936, and when the area later was expanded in 1994, it became Joshua Tree National Park. Joshua Tree National Park, even with its often-conflicting land uses, is more popular today than ever, serving more than one million visitors per year who find the desert to be a place worthy of respect and preservation.

Monumentul National Joshua Tree a fost infiintat oficial in 1936, iar cand zona a fost extinsa mai tarziu in 1994, a devenit Parcul National Joshua Tree. Parcul National Joshua Tree, chiar si cu utilizarile sale de teren adesea conflictuale, este mai popular astazi ca niciodata, deservind peste un milion de vizitatori pe an care considera ca desertul este un loc demn de respect si conservare.
