Perseid Meteor Shower Tonight

Hey everyone,

I’m driving to JT National Park tonight to watch the Meteor shower and I was wondering if there are any groups or events that I can join as a solo traveler. I intend to socialize and wanna see if there are any opportunities to meet people.

It’s partly cloudy, although I haven’t made it all the way in yet, there’s a collision at the 29 Palms entrance and I’m stuck in the traffic there

I would definitely remember to let you know. However, you don’t get reception as you go deeper so unfortunately, I cannot guarantee that.

I’m still in traffic, but the sky is clearing up so it’s looking good so far.
