Hi everyone I was wondering if anybody could provide me with any info on this beautiful climb in Joshua tree(see pic). It is located in the lost horse area past the cockroach crags on the backside of a large boulder that can be seen from the trail. I'm fairly certain the boulder is located at 34.012196,-116.175378.

Thanks,
Carlos

Jesus, Google Maps is amazing ( I now nothing about this feature, but maybe these images can help jog someone else's memory?)

The crack is called Leave it To Crusher (5.10a) and is on the backside of the Moving to Montana Boulder.

Moving to Montana (5.11d), another Mike Paul gem, is the frontside crack. Many years later it was bouldered out (after TR'ing it) by Kevin Daniels and dubbed "Kevitation" unaware that it had been previously climbed.
