I got through on one try and got the following:
There are park alerts in effect.
A Portion Of Park Boulevard Remains Closed
Park Boulevard is closed from North Entrance to Pinto Basin Road, but is open from there to West Entrance. Jumbo Rocks Campground is closed. Access to Cottonwood Spring Oasis, Lost Palms Oasis, and Mastodon Peak is currently not available.
Please note: Jumbo Rocks Campground is closed due to storm damage and Ryan Campground is closed until October 4. Belle and White Tank campgrounds, which were closed for the summer, are now open. Black Rock, Cottonwood, Hidden Valley, Indian Cove, and Sheep Pass are also open.
Looks like it's open, but I'm not sure how current that is. At least it mentions an October date, so it can't be too out of date.
You could call Joshua Tree NP at (760) 367-5500, (760) 366-1855, or (760) 367-6392 (I got those off yellowpages.com)
If you can't get through to the NPS, you might contact the Joshua Tree National Park Association at (760) 367-5525
