Tire Tread Wall

California > Joshua Tree NP > Lost Horse Area > Atlantis Area
Warning Access Issue: Climbing Regulations/Seasonal Raptor Closures DetailsDrop down

Description

This wall is just up and right from the Atlantis Wall and could be considered an extension of Atlantis. It is defined by the dark markings on the wall that look like a tire tread.

Getting There

Same approach as the Atlantis Wall but scramble to the top of the canyon and it will be on the left (east) facing wall.
