| TheGoat | Favorite retreat Date Climbed: Mar 2, 2004 | |
| Done a ton of camping and freehand climbing here ever since I was a little Scout. I always look for the tallest place and then try to climb that. Sometimes it works, sometimes I run out of time. I've also done the 49 Palms Oasis trail twice. | |

| farrisgl | Intersection Rock - First Place I Rock climbed Date Climbed: Mar 12, 1973 | |
| From my initial climbing in JT in Hidden Valley, I have probably climbed at various JT sites about 200 times. Good climbing with easy access to most routes, for the most part "tailgate climbing". Great place to teach climbing. | |

| TripoliRick | Great place for "winter" climbing | |
| Lots of routes over thirty+ years. Did a lot of training/instructing SAR stuff there and a few SAR missions. First visited the "monument" as a kid in the 1950s. So I guess I've been climbing there for almost 50 years (started age 4 in Devils Lake, Wisconsin). My goal, write a beginers climbing guide to Joshua Tree, fro cool fun 4th class routes to maybe 5.5 max. If you look at all the guides lately, a new person would be hard pressed to find "easy" stuff. Now who was it that was going to help me? | |

| Curtis and I spent two days here. Hiked numerous places, including Barker Dam and Cottonwood Springs Trails. Biked many of the dirt roads around the park. Bouldered in various places, including Jumbo Rocks Campsite. It was hot, especially our second day when we camped at Cottonwood: No shade except from a small tarp we brought. | |
