Visitors come for rock climbing, stargazing, and exploring unique geological formations. The parks ecosystems support desert tortoises, bighorn sheep, and diverse plant life.
Its combination of desert scenery and cultural history makes it a popular destination for outdoor recreation. The parks night skies are among the darkest in Southern California.
