^^ first lap, onsight attempt. Second lap, exploratory foray. 3rd lap redpoint, smooth as silk. Way to go Jon, that was inspirational and f*#king fun to watch.

I'll trade you the Gunks for JT for like 3 years. Maybe I give it back, maybe I don't.

Despite reports that this is a sketchy lead, I thought the protection was adequate. In light of their respective ratings, 29 Palms is the more difficult line.

This is an excellent route and a must do on the difficult dihedral circuit of Josh. There is gear, but all of it is marginal throughout the difficult climbing.

Not Josh but very similar rock. One unclimbed and another 5.10+
Saline Wall, Saline Valley
Plenty of other fine dihedrals looking for ascents.

Wavecrest is pretty deep in the Wonderland. It sits high above the desert floor up above the Lost in the Wonderland Slab. It is an amazing spot. The climb itself is excellent and gets an extra star for obscurity. Friend and I visited it two weekends ago. I eeked out the onsight and Friend smoothly redpointed.
Both the approach to and the exit from the crag are spectacular. A classic outing all around.
