Bouldering at the Hemingway Boulders, Joshua Tree.

Description 

The Lost Horse Area covers problems along the Lost Horse Road and includes Blas Beemer Boulder, Cheese Boulder, Hemingway Boulders etc. as well as the large open area to the southwest of it with the extensive Jimmy Cliff Area.

Depending on which area you choose it may be easier to approach from the Lost Horse Road or the parking area at Real Hidden Valley. Approaches vary from 5-20 minutes with easy walking on level ground the norm.


Getting There 

The turn-off to the Lost Horse Road is 7.5 miles from the West Entrance and 1.3 miles from Hidden Valley Campground. See the sub-areas for more detailed approach information.

Aiguille de Ankle Breaker V2  CA : Joshua Tree National Park : ... : Ankle Breaker Rock
Start as far right as possible and follow the thin seams at the corner for about 10 feet. There isn't much in the way of feet so heel hooking is key. At the bulge reach low for the jug and pop for the lip. The climb is named for the multitude of loose rock at the base that was present when the first ascent was done (the landing has since been cleaned up). ...[more]   Browse More Classics in CA
