Joshua Tree Hiking: Chollas and More Hikes

After hiking Mt. Ryan, we went checked out some chollas, which are cacti and are not to be confused with heavy-on-the-eyeliner, light-on-the-eyebrows Latina gangsters.  The chollas are found in the Colorado Desert, which is also a part of Joshua Tree National Park.








 Dude, these cacti do NOT play!  It was hard getting the sucker off Ayk's shoe.


Three cheers for happy cactus guy!




Lean like a chola ... towards the sun.


We did a few more short hikes before leaving Joshua Tree for the Grand Canyon.








It may not be Arches National Park, but it'll do.
