5.11d The Cavity - with Klara R Mixed trad 27m, 4 Joshua Tree National Park Average

Scary, because the outer layer of the rock is crumbling off in many places, decided to go back down at the third bolt

First an overhanging flake and then the crux, protected by a bolt: getting from the flake into a crack on the left

Could not do the one move when going from last good hold of the flake to the crack. The move exactly was matching the right hand into the crack. Did not try very long though. For next time, try switching feet first and jamming left hand more so that I am already turned in when matching right hand.

A single staunch move that is a little harder if you dont use the flake. Okay with small hands. Then scarily up.

What a blast. Absolute bomber jams once you establish yourself in the crack just under the bulge. I feel the runout to the first piece of gear is a bit exaggerated, it's very easy terrain (I did the direct start, straight up) and the first piece is perfect.

Good, tricky crack climbing for the grade. I think 8+ is a bit of a sandbag. Make sure not to miss your first .75 placement if you're at you limit.

Second go on top rope. Cedar was on it so i thought I might as well join in as I wasn’t doing anything. Very fun, bouldery, intense crack climbing. A sandbag.

Very nice route, two cracks, but no jamming required. A bit more scary to me than Wind tower, because the climbing is a bit more weird, but nice weird .

Followed this back in October 2021, today I lead this as my first ever trad lead. Took ages to find the right placements, but I made it up there cleanly. Still a nice climb.

The first 20' can be protected perfectly fine to prevent a groundfall. I found a yellow totem, blue totem and a .75 Camelot to protect these moves.

5.8 5.9 Sexy Grandma - with Gavin Smith Sport 24m Joshua Tree National Park Very Good
Gavin Smith
Mon 4th Jan 2016
Nice, easy route. Bring a #2 if you want to protect a small amount of runout on easy terrain before the anchor, but in my opinion no other gear is necessary with three well placed bolts and two solid-looking pins. The crux, to me, came just beneath the first bolt rather than pulling past the roof.

Silly fall after first bolt otherwise it was fine. Would've done it again for the redpoint but too many other climbs around I want to do!

Nice, not really traditional but I think more 5.9-5.10 one high foot move that feels harder than 5.8
