context_page_description: Fortynine Palms Oasis is a three-mile, out and back trail located in Joshua Tree National Park in California, with a 300-foot elevation gain in both directions. The trail starts at Fortynine Palms Parking Area, goes up and over a ridge dotted with barrel cacti, and descends to a palm oasis in a rocky canyon. The palm trees were planted by miners in the early 1900s to easily locate the natural spring located there. The oasis is frequently used as a watering hole for bighorn sheep. In July 2018 a Candian hiker, Paul Miller, went missing while on the trail. His remains were found off the trail in January 2020.
