ABOUT AREA 62
It's there if you know where to look. Honest. Behind an unmarked door, in a third of an abandoned contractor's trailer, on the campus of the smallest community college in California, out in the Mojave Desert, lies the beating heart of Area 62, the podcast of the culture of Joshua Tree and the hi-desert – and beyond.
Copper Mountain College's modest Media Studio is the base of operations for Area 62, as well as the college's weekly radio show, and its award-winning Cacti Chronicles newspaper. Area 62 is produced, hosted, and edited (usually) by the students of Copper Mountain College. We hope you enjoy your visits to Area 62!
