BETA PHOTO: Photo/topo for Ben Dover Wall, Joshua Tree NP


Description 

This route is just right of Ben Dover. It might even share bolts with Ben Dover. Who knows. The entire wall is sort of a confused mess of bolts and squeeze jobs, this one probably being the worst offender. Basically take the easiest way up the wall, using whatever jugs may appear.


Location 

This route is around the corner to the left of Fun Stuff, on the end of the main formation. This route is just to the right of Ben Dover and to the left of Eileen Dover.

These routes have anchors at the top or you can down climb to climbers left.


Protection 

3 bolts, anchors

The right line of bolts (brown hangers) to anchors, which are close in spots to Ben Dover.
