BETA PHOTO: Stirrup Rock (north face), Joshua Tree NP

Description 

This shady side of the rock hosts a number of routes from 5.6 - 5.12a with Jugular Vein (5.8), Freckle Face (5.11a) and Finger Bowl (5.12a) the best of the bunch here.

Getting There 

Hike northwest from the parking area aiming for the obvious largest formation in the area then circle around to the shady north side. The approach takes about 5 minutes from the car and is level with no boulder hopping.
