With the Josh season getting under way, do you have a fav J-tree route that keeps calling your name particularly at the end of the day when it gets hard to think of which last route to do
I love doing RML at Echo Cove. It's the only route I've ever done that requires a "kip" to get over the lip, really fun!
Plus the chain anchors make for a quick exit and the approach is massively short

I know there's lots of fun "go to" routes out there, so what’s yours

When I am tired, "The Beaver".........

NOT.

End of day, "The Eye"......

new folks, first time at Josh..... "Headstone, left side...."

new folks, first time climber .... "Upper right ski track".....

best quality, show off climb.... "Young Lust"......

Free solo….no doubt

Near the end of a good warm day, I like to finish myself off on Gunsmoke.

Go to, end of the day (not the days objective,) or perhaps the warmup at the start of the day: Heart and Sole...

Funny, Coarse and Buggy has gone from .10d to .11b since I've been climbing at Josh...

Illusion Dweller from .10a to Stiff .10b...

Butterfly Crack is much harder now, unless your very tall, than it used to be due to ground erosion under the start.

Gunsmoke on a warm day? That spot cooks, I go there when it is just to cold to actually climb...

John... The Birdman.

I saw him there once last year, but I don't hang at The Smoke like I used to. I mean how many times can you go back and forth and back and forth and...

Sorry - almost did a Victor Borja there...

Ha! You just made me remember my first date with that climb. I was at the top pulling the mantel when one of my feet popped. Both hands were on the top, so I wasn't going to fall, but I slammed my chin right on the top of the rock. Split my chin and dripped blood all over the place while I was setting up the belay. Still have the scar from that one.

GO to? I dunno... I sure like Big Mo. (But doubt I could get past the first crux now...)
