Yoink!

I've rented a car in Las Vegas and have reserved a hotel in Twentynine Palms which is just north of Joshua Tree. We'll drive from Las Vegas through Mojave National Preserve and possibly do a short hike on our way down. Then spend all day on Monday at Joshua Tree. We can decide the next morning if we want to do more in Joshua Tree or Mojave before we head back.

Sounds like a great road trip plan! Mojave National Preserve and Joshua Tree are both amazing places to explore. Enjoy your hike and have a fantastic time exploring the stunning desert landscapes!
