The Wagon Station Encampment at Joshua Tree

For those who want to get out into the middle of nowhere to experience the Mohave desert in a unique way, artist Andrea Zittel has built the Wagon Station Encampment with a science fiction aesthetic.

Consisting of just 12 small cabins (maybe more appropriately described as pods) and a communal kitchen area, outdoor showers, and outhouses, the encampment manages to give a visitor as much of an opportunity to meet new people and enjoy a more solitary retreat. The pods are each really paired down – just a mattress, two shelves, an area for storing clothes, and a front hatch with a window for looking out at the desert sky. The encampment is made open to the public twice a year and can be reserved for $100 a week after filing a $20 application fee and being approved.
