Joshua tree in the rain?

Its wild out there for sure. Scrambling around domes and giant boulder fields is always worth a day or two. Just hope its not blowing 45mph and raining!

Another option is to bring a suitcase full of drugs and booze and party hard in the campground.

+1 for the suitcase. Dont forget the whiskey and brews!

Remember, Colonel, this is California and we waited FIVE years just to get some meaningful rain.

That quick? Mr. Mustard- are you out to destroy the roots? Everyone KNOWS that the acids in your sweat/hands eats away the stone in an insidious way. The rain- no matter how little- mixes with sweat and is carried deep down into the structure of the stone causing a thermal beak down of the underlying structure. STOP GIVING BOGUS ADVICE! My God you could get somebody killed!!!

Careful! There are some folks on this site who will believe that. It will be nagging in their minds as they inspect their gear for microfractures.
