| Fun place to rock climb. I also climbed an unnamed ( I think ) peak out of Indian Cove campground. It's apparently the largest peak in the Indian Cove area and some class 3 routes can be found on both sides. Fun little day hike. | |

| Great place for cracks! Got my first two trad leads (5.7s). Had four solid days of climbing. First day was wet with snowmelt! It warmed up quite a bit by the end of the t'giving week, but we still managed to melt snow for water in the campground!! | |

| Sweet climbing for sure. The weather wasn't as great as I was hoping but it was ok. Climbed Double Cross, Toe Jam, Double Dip, Stitcher Quits, Loose Lady, Hobbit Roof, and many others. I hope to get back maybe during the fall. | |

| Most recent trip was MLK weekend 2005. Took a dayhike with climbing gear up Rattlesnake Canyon. After about 1.5 miles we cut across to our camp in Indian cove, a beautiful and very challenging day of scrambling and cross country route finding. | |

| Did some climbing with some friends who drove all the way out from Texas. I flew into L.A., climbed in Joshua Tree a couple of days with my friends, then climbed some route right on the beach a friend of mine from L.A. knew about. | |

| This was my first trip to Josh and it was tons of fun. Went with a bunch of really good climbers and was amazed that there were easy things for me to do that were fun for them, too. | |

| We had a great time on our yearly trip to J Tree. We had about 20 climbers ranging in age from 11 to 50. Thanks Venture Crew 1214 Fullerton for Hosting the trip. Indian Cove was great and the weather was the best. | |

| I've summited Joshua Tree Ntl. Park many times, & many different places. Have wonderful memories from there, & anticipate & hope for many more to come! Smelling like J-Tree granite after a long day of climbing, surrounded by all of the rock formations & funked-out J-trees, with an impossibly big desert sky above (esp. full of stars), is sublime. Have hung out with some great people there, definitely one of the nicest things. First 'official' 5th-class free solo there, too. Even just beer & kind while chillin' is great there (well, even better than most places). Fav' routes there (so far) include Stichter Quits (face), Double Cross (crack), Sail Away (comb. face & crack), & Palm Reader (crack). Some of the most despicable routes I've ever done are there also, most notably Dogleg (terrible butt-scumming chimney/off-width) & Gaz Giz. | |
