“The Old Woman” is one of many amazing rock formations tucked away in Joshua Tree National Park. This formation is easily accessible sitting across the parking lot from Intersection Rock and right next to Hidden Valley Campground. This area is quite popular with rock climbers so you may have to share or wait patiently for a clear people-free shot. Since this location is within a national park please do you best to stay on these trails, and where you are forced to use a different path, choose the ones that rain can mend in time. Drainages make for good trails where there are no established trails. Avoid stepping on native and fragile plants, and do not feed the coyotes. (Joshua Tree National Park, California, USA)
