Several years ago, I worked with someone who grew up near Joshua Tree and had stories of going there before it was a National Park. It sounds like a really interesting place. More recently, I interviewed someone who was working there and it sounds like it is much busier than what the first person described.
Hard to say. This person had stories from the early and late 80s so I couldn’t use them as a reference. It sounded like a ghost town and they were definitely doing things that folks don’t do in parks. The more recent person was working there in 2023 and had very different stories.

Hope you had a good time!
I wonder how many people visit because of U2.
The Queens of the Stone Age are well known to be from that area as well for what it’s worth.
