Joshua Tree National Park - California

After a great few days in San Francisco and a fantastic skydive adventure in Byron I left and headed for Yosemite National Park.  Unfortunately the weather took a turn for the worse and a huge storm rolled in bringing high winds and snow! As my main objective in Yosemite was rock climbing I needed an alternative location.........

Following a 9 hour drive I arrived in Joshua Tree, which turned out to be a really good decision! Joshua is a unique place, really great landscape, amazing trees and the climbing with Seth from Cliffhanger Guides was outstanding!!!






Checking out the route....
