Don't climb on wet rock! Sandstone is a porous rock type that can absorb a lot of water. It can lose up to 75% of its strength while wet, making it easy to snap off holds and irreparably damage classic climbs. Wait 48 to 72hrs after precipitation. If the ground is still damp then the rock is still wet. A great way to check for precipitation history before traveling to Joe's is to go to this site-

and under "Data Charts" click the "Precipitation" tab. Make sure the surface wetness is 0 before climbing.
Description
A newer development located high on the north hillside of Right Fork. There are several boulders, the standout being the Hidden Dragon Boulder.
Getting There
Drive up Right Fork. Just after the road turns to gravel look for a pull out on the the left (south) side of the road and park here. A faint trailhead was marked with a small cairn at the time of writing. A long steep slog by Joe's standards leads to the Crouching Tiger Boulder. From here hike a short distance up-canyon to the Boba Tea Boulder or down-canyon to the Hidden Dragon Boulder.
