Description Suggest change

This very round dome is found behind the Freak Brothers Dome and is home to a few moderate face routes as well as Dihedron (5.14a), the hardest traditional route in Joshua Tree. Perhaps not a destination crag but a good place to escape the crowds.

Getting There Suggest change

Head into the Wonderland as if for the Freak Brothers. About 100 yards past that, turn right up and into the valley. The large Disneyland Dome is on the left, while this is on the right, forming a corridor between it and Fat Freddie's Cat.

Sun & Shade Suggest change

Details: In late December, the base of the main face goes into the shade (due to Freddy's Fat Cat) about 1pm. The upper portion of the cliff is in the sun until sunset. Dihedron is in the shade all day.
