provided by the
National Park Service you can see that geology and rock formations play an important role in the park. The Joshua Trees are not the stars there but the trees combined with the nice desert landscape with its rocks. Joshua Trees are not that seldom - you find a lot of them also far away

I'm curious about the word choice, when you say "Typical view of Joshua Tree
National Park"... because to me it's exactly the opposite. The "typical" view is what I've always seen: Joshua Trees at sunset, with or without U2 bandmembers standing about. I had no idea there were any jutting rock
283:
Not sure I agree with using the phrase "typical view" to describe an image even if it is typical, even though I can't think of anything better to call it. That being said it is a high quality and illustrative image.
