Access Issue: Climbing Regulations/Seasonal Raptor Closures
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.
For a complete list of climbing rules and closures visit:

Description
Climb up on top of a boulder at the base of a hand crack that bisects the formation. Cut right onto the face, and up past 3 bolts to a 2 bolt anchor.
Location
This is the dark brown formation easily seen from the road with the crack up the middle of the formation. Park on the main road and hike over and up to the formation. It is west of Invisible Baby Jones/Roman Bath area, and east of Shave Your Bump.
Protection
Maybe a piece at the start if you wish. 3 QDs for the bolts.
[Hide Photo] W.O.M.C. is the bolted face to the right of the crack.
