Joshua Tree

Jumbo Rocks 11-16-13

Camping at the Jumbo Rocks Campsite in Joshua Tree, California

The Plan:

We will load up my van with coolers full of beer. Tons of snacks, and drive out to Jumbo Rocks in Joshua Tree. We will drive out Saturday morning, spend the day drinking and walking around, start a fire, spend the night in our large roomy tents, and then drive home in the morning.

Goal: to celebrate Hanif Payandeh and Joey Kim's Birthday

What happened:

We met in the morning on Saturday November 16th. We loaded up the van with our gear, a cooler full of beer, snacks, etc. It was nice to be car camping for a change. We drove out to Joshua Tree. Our first choice was the Jumbo Rocks Campground. It was full but we were able to share a large spot with some rock climbers that did not mind. We spent the day hanging out (drinking). The night was cold (45 degrees). In the morning we did some bouldering and scrambling on the jumbo rocks. Then we drove home.
