Question 1

ARE THERE ANY THINGS I NEED TO DO TO PREPARE?

Accepted Answer

Waiver: All participants must complete the participation waiver at least 24 hours before a class begins. Failure to do so may forfeit your right to participate.

Question 2

DO I HAVE TO PAY TO GET INTO THE NATIONAL PARK?

Accepted Answer

For classes inside Joshua Tree National Park, participants are now required to purchase a park pass. A day pass is $30 per vehicle, $55 for a year pass, $25 for a motorcycle pass, and $15 for a bicycle/pedestrian pass.

Question 3

WHAT IF I NEED TO CANCEL? WILL I GET A REFUND?

Accepted Answer

Desert Institute will provide a full refund if we are notified 14 days in advance. If we are notified less than 14 days in advance, we are unable to process refunds for any reason. (But we would like you to notify us if you are unable to attend.)

Question 4

DOES DESERT INSTITUTE CANCEL EVENTS FOR WEATHER?

Accepted Answer

Desert Institute runs classes rain or shine. If we do not meet our minimum of 4 registered participants for any given activity, we will cancel the activity with 48+ hours notice. We recommend that you purchase travel insurance to protect expenses we cannot reimburse, such as airfare and hotel.

Question 5

CAN I BRING MY KIDS? MY PARTNER? PETS?

Accepted Answer

Only registered participants may attend Desert Institute activities unless noted in the activity description. If this is a kid-friendly activity, please make sure your child(ren) meets the age requirements. As much as we love our pets, we don’t allow them in the field with any of our activities.
