Beginning Tuesday, November 2, 2021, Joshua Tree National Park managers will close a section of Queen Valley Road for visitor and staff safety. This temporary closure will allow the park to repair damage to vegetation and soils caused by unauthorized pull-outs along this road. The closure will begin at 7:00 AM and go through 5:00 PM November 2-4, and November 8-10. Authorized pull-outs are located every half-mile along the road and are not part of this project.

Continued access to Pine City trailhead, as well as Odell and Big Horn Pass roads will be unaffected.
