California: Joshua Tree Desert View Conservation Area Trail Phase II Wins 1.982 Million Dollar Contract, Budget Rises to About 2.7 Million
San Bernardino County, California: The San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors on November 3, 2026 approved a 1,982,000 dollar construction contract with Deark E&C Inc. for Phase II of the Desert View Conservation Area Recreational Trails Project near Joshua Tree, and increased the project budget from 2 million dollars to approximately 2.7 million dollars, according to the county summary published on November 5.
The county said Phase II is the final planned phase of improvements identified through community input dating back to 2010. It will improve the existing trail system without adding new trails, rehabilitate worn and eroded sections, and add shade structures with picnic tables and benches at rest areas, an overlook platform, and informational kiosks with trail maps.
New wayfinding signs and mileage posts will help visitors navigate, while discovery shelters and interpretive panels will share information about the desert habitat, geology, native plants and wildlife, and Native American history and culture. A comprehensive environmental assessment was completed to safeguard sensitive habitat, the county said.
The roughly 605 acre conservation and low impact recreation area is managed by Public Works Special Districts. The project is funded entirely by a California Wildlife Conservation Board grant, and construction is expected to begin this fall. Earlier mentions of a same named church elsewhere are unrelated to this site.
