Access Issue: Climbing Regulations/Seasonal Raptor Closures Details
Details
The Joshua Tree National Park Superintendent's Compendium states that:
1. Vegetation is not allowed to be used as an anchor.
2. Only neutral or rock-colored bolt hangers are allowed. A permit is required to replace or add new bolts: nps.gov/jotr/planyourvisit/…
Seasonal Closures:
The presence of a nesting owl in very close proximity to a variety of climbing routes, "Right On," "Orange Flake," "Kid Caligula," requires closure until the nest has been abandoned to ensure the protection of the species for the duration of the nesting activities. This closure will be in effect from February 17, 2026 until June 7, 2026; or until the nest has been abandoned.
The presence of a prairie falcon nesting in very close proximity to a variety of climbing routes requires closure of "Fat Freddie’s Cat,” “Freak Brothers Dome,” “The Weenie,” “Pea Brain,” and “The Red Obelisk." This closure will be in effect from February 17, 2026 until June 7, 2026; or until the nest has been abandoned

Description
Exposed moves off a ramp reach a large flake and a high 1st bolt (0.75" cam fits into a horizontal crack before the 1st bolt). The moves just past the 2nd bolt, pulling past as bulge on thin holds, are the crux, after which the difficulty eases and the angle kicks back to less than vertical.
- Due to the sloping and somewhat precarious base it would be prudent to set an anchor for the belayer (gear to 1.5 inches) or lead from the ground in one pitch.
Although short this route features fun movement and high quality rock in a quiet and seldom visited area.
