Featured Route For Gateway Rock
Nearing the top of Broken Glass (5.10a), a worthy obscurity.

Broken Glass 5.10a  CA : Joshua Tree National Park : ... : Gateway Rock
This route lies on the left side of a buttress of rock, near the northeast corner of Gateway Rock. It lies about 50 feet right of Solo. Just as you enter into Real Hidden Valley, where the nature trail "T"s, look left to the northeast corner of Gateway Rock. This dogleg crack lies on the east (left) side of a small buttress.This climb has cleaned up very nicely over the years. A good lead for someone breaking into the grade....[more]   Browse More Classics in CA
