Description
This climb is visible on the drive into the 49 Palms parking area. Just before you reach the parking lot, you can see a ridge of climbing rock off to the south of the parking lot. Hike up the 49 Palms trail only for a few minutes, then cut off to the right and hike past a huge eggs shaped boulder with a steep dike on it (Project; 2 bolts on top and has been tried on a TR......5.11+?...we couldn't do it....). Keep hiking all the way to the furthest right climbable rock, and you will find this climb. It is still down low, and only maybe 5-10 min. from the parking lot. The climb goes up past one bolt, then some natural gear, then past another bolt or two near the top to a 2 bolt anchor.
Location
Not far off the 49 Palms Oasis trail, down and to the right. This cliffband is very visible as you drive in to the parking area, but not visible from the parking area.
Protection
a few small to med. cams, and a few quick draws.
