Mojave National Preserve

You can spend an entire day or just a few hours driving around the free Mojave National Preserve, taking in natural sights such as giant 'singing' dunes, an extinct volcano, a huge Joshua-tree forest and sculptured rock walls. Pick up information and maps at the main visitor center in an old railroad depot in Kelso.
