Is the Colorado desert a portion of the Sonoran desert?  What types of
vegetation are found there?  Any Joshua trees?  I have been in Joshua tree
NP and always thought that was part of the Mojave.  Maybe there is no clear
delineation between these two areas.  I guess I'll have to hike southern CA
to find out.  Thanks for the info.
