The jumping cactus is the Cholla (choya) and doesn't jump at you unless you step on it or brush up against it. The thorns are quite strong and kind of act like a spring, that's how they jump. Don't step on them or brush against them and you'll be fine. Snakes, rattlers, always make a sound to let you know you're close, if you hear one, just move away and you should be fine. Lessons I've learned after 62 years in the dessert. Loved your Jashua Tree vlog, never knew there was a town there, now I have to go. Thanks

Best night's rest in the Gram Parsons room. So many interesting places along the way, the Tin Goose,(nice stovepipe), Turtleland, the salon museum, today's vlog is a slice of Americana. Glad you found your way back from the jalopy, ruins and Santa totem. Jumping cactus? Could they be pulling your leg? Lmho. Creepy anecdote about Charlie's music. He's always so happy to see you,Jah! Exciting when you never know where the road may take you, great vlog Jordan. Masterpiece

Hey Jordan I was watching a video of yours where your talking about Gram Parsons and the flying burrito bros. They did a concert in palm springs at a drive in that totally destroyed the place, it was talked about for years. I didnt know who that band was when I was a kid, just heard how tore up they were. Didnt know about the Keith connection either but thanks for filling me in

Wow what a nice scenic trip you had. I was curious about the "pink house" so I looked it up on line and apparently it was owned by a person named Signe Ohlson. This person died in Joshua tree town at the age of 100. In any event, I would love to walk that trail. Happy trails Jordan!

Interesting film. Those spots that once resembled homes were part of a land act in the 1930’s to get people to settle there. It’s cool that the main well is still intact. I noticed a couple collapsed wells outside the former dwellings too. As much as 10 years ago many of the buildings still stood. Most were of skeleton form but intact. Desert weather has caused them to give way to nature. Ur TURTLE man was connected to this attempt to settle the desert. And the jumping cactus is wild. U just get close when it has pollination pods and they fly off and cling to a new host in hopes of landing somewhere to grow. My grandmother used to tell me about them. That’s all the useless info I have stuck in my head about this subject. Thanks for the hike. The desert looks calm and normal with sun up but that area is know as terrifying at sun down when cactus take the form of demons etc. anyway good job. Ur trip and cancelled meeting followed by the meeting of family seems very likely directed by Graham’s spirit and there is another chapter coming in ur life that will happen because u went there exactly when u did. I believe EVERYTHING happens for a reason. This vlog is seriously interesting to me. Deeper than the surface. Sorry so chatty.

Just catching up here on vlogs Jacob. What a cool exploration there in Joshua Tree. Wonder what the back story is on that abandoned structure is, or even that rusted out old car? Very interesting stuff. Glad to see you didn't run into any of those rogue cactuses, right? Well, onto the next vlog. Looking forward to recapturing Jah's birthday. I've read and "liked" the various homages to Jah between both Facebook accounts, and it seems he has quite the following. Glad to be a part of that with you two. Well, onto the next vlog. Stay blessed, and I'll catch you later..... Take care Jacob. Arthur Childs, Oak Harbor, WA. 🙂
