This outing combines two terrific trails within the Wonderland of Rocks area of the Joshua Tree National Park.
The trail to Barker Dam goes past spectacular rock formations, Indian grinding holes and petroglyphs.
After completing the Barker Dam Loop we will hike the adjacent Wall Street mill loop, an area of mining
activity from the 1930’s.
