Joshua Tree's Prettiest Woman

[ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ]

The name of this formation is "The Old Woman", but as you can see it's the prettiest woman around. It has many moderate and classic routes. My very first lead in Joshua Tree was a popular climb called "Double Cross, 5.7."

Nice pic as always Marc! I was wondering what the scale of the picture is: how high is this rock?

Pretty Old Woman

Voted 10/10

The older I get the more clearly I see (though my eyes are actually getting poorer and poorer) that the old can be pretty as well. You've just provided conclusive evidence, Marc.
Cheers,
Jacek

	Hasn't voted	Thank you Jacek. Your comment reminds me of Elton John's song Daniel, where he says, "Daniel my brother, you're blind, but you see more than I." It doesn't really take any eye-sight to see clearly. And, that's my comment. cheers to you, Marc
