- Greetings, Netters,
-
- I've a couple of climbing friends who are getting married in a few months
- and want to take their honeymoon out at Joshua Tree, and as they have no
- access to the Network (much less email), they asked me to ask you to give
- them suggestions of climbs to do out there, and what kind of pro is needed.
- They'll probably be climbing between 5.5 to 5.9 lead, 5.10 toprope. I was
- out long, long ago, but didn't get enough exposure to the area to point them
- much of anywhere except Short Wall (where the only toprope-able 5.10 I am
- familiar with is Right V-Crack). Any responses you have for routes and/or
- pro I will pass on to them. Thanks!
-
- (and as a friend of mine in Pa says, "May your belayer never sleep!")
