I’m looking for a nice wall to practice rappelling in Joshua Tree. My partner doesn’t climb but we’re getting into canyoneering. I’d like to find a tall wall with easy walk-up and nice top rope anchor set back from the edge, with good shade and a short approach from the car. Would love to hear any suggestions!
Thin Wall comes to mind, although it is usually quite busy on weekends. Also the south side of Echo cove has a few routes with bolted anchors, shade, and an easy walk up. Most walls with easy walk ups don't have nice bolted rap anchors in Josh.
There's a bolted anchor a little backed up from the edge on Spaghetti and Chili near the Eye on Cyclops. That would probably work for you. No rap rings though so you'll have to build a quad or something and go back up to get it.
