Description
The Bond Boulders, a collection of several enormous blocks on the approach to the main Loveland area, offers a number of high quality bolt-protected face climbs on above average rock.
A good area to visit with a number of high-quality face routes and an easy approach across mostly flat terrain that is ideal on those frequent cold and windy days. A nice spot to climb and experience the quiet side of Joshua Tree.

Getting There
Walk northeast from the Split Rocks parking area, following a faint path, for about a mile to a collection of large chocolate brown boulders on your left. These are the Bond Boulders; walking past these will take you to a large wash (Desert Queen Wash) where a left turn will lead to the majority of routes in the Loveland area.
