It is really no surprise that Joshua Tree National Park is seeing a big surge in popularity. It is the closest national park to the city of Los Angeles.
According to the U.S. News & World Report:
JOSHUA TREE NATIONAL PARK, Calif. (AP) — Joshua Tree National Park is seeing an explosion in popularity.
The vast park where the Mojave and Colorado deserts meet in Southern California had more than 2.8 million visitors in 2017.
The Press-Enterprise of Riverside says that's an increase of nearly 340,000 from 2016 and double the approximately 1.4 million who came as recently as 2013.
