A Lost Death Valley (and surrounding area) Video
#13
Sorry to highjack the thread (but this forum has been open for almost a week with no highjacking!), but it sounds like you've spent some time on the islands.  

Yes, Hawaii and DV have some similarities in certain parts.  We are on Hawaii island, and there are prickly pear cactus growing on the northwest side of the island.  The area is considered desert, as it receives less than 10 inches of rain per year.  It is quite hot and desolate.  Our house is on the rainy side, and we have trees that grow over two feet per month!  Yet, we're also 8 miles from the most recent lava flow.  It is quite a landscape.

Our favorite island is Lanai, but no way can we afford to live there.  Yes, I suspect Joshua trees could exist on Lanai, as the road to Polihua beach already has red dirt, and vert desert-like vegetation.
