Description
This area is on the hillside south of the town of 29 Palms, and best seen from the Del Taco in 29 Palms. There are more than a dozen climbs up on the hillside, and in the canyons nearby. The main crag is The Peta Crag, with two two trad lines and 4 sport climbs up to 100 feet long.
Getting There
The climbs are best approached from a primitive road head in a residential area of 29 Palms just east of the Del Taco in 29 Palms.
