Corey, fly into Palm Springs. If you buy the ticket early enough it wont be much diff- then Ontario and it's closer. I would give you a ride but I can't commit, sorry. You might try calling the Uprising Rock Climbing Center in Palm Springs and find out if anyone there would be going. The rock center is just 2 to 5 minutes from the PS airport. Have fun!

You're right, enigma, I wasn't there. I was in Tucson instead having a good time, because the rangers basically flat out told people they were going to crack down on everything on New Years Eve - parking, noise, alcohol, the whole shebang. They pretty much said that the previous year was out of control, and they weren't going to allow it this year. That was enough of a warning for me to head elsewhere, because as much as I love Joshua Tree and drinking beer and whooping it up with fellow climbers, it was abundantly clear that the $#!& was going to hit the fan, and I didn't want to be around for the splatter.
Sorry you got busted.
Oh yea, I almost forgot.... I bought my plane ticket and rented a car. Will be there Thursday night (late) through Monday night with a fellow climbing from Indiana. If anyone needs a lift out from LAX at around 11:30 pm Thursday, let me know. I might try to find this climber's hostel/ranch thing, since figuring out where people are at 2 am in Indian Cove (which I've never been to before) could be tough.

Yeah, the rangers were being unusally strict on New Years Eve. My relations with them have always been cordial. They enforce the rules, which is their job, but, in my experience, they've always been polite about it.
Even on New Years they were cutting some slack. They let Zac park illegally, giving him a parking permit that read, "Climber has no parking spot. Climber too drunk to move." See the picture of it, linked in a post above.

Well maybe the rangers are more tolerant in Indian Cove, In hidden valley it was like "big brother is watching". Hey I don't go for that at all, it wasn't just a ticket, there presence was horrible.Get it.
Last year's New Years eve was great, we had a fashion show, naked men and women,prizes and 255 people.
Lets hope they are in Hidden Valley during the gathering,instead of Indian Cove. I hope no-one has mentioned this to the ranger police.

We gave Ranger Dave a beer and a homemade "hot tomale", so he was hooked up.
I also have had nothing but positive experiences with the rangers.
'trad'... When do you fly in to LAX ??? Karen and I fly in around 10PM Thurday to LAX, so if you are there, you can crash at my house, then ride out with us Friday morning.

rrradam.... I'm arriving at 11:18 pm into LAX with a semi-novice climber in tow. She's fairly new - been climbing indoors regularly, but not too much outdoors.
The offer of the ride out and accomodations is appreciated, but out return tickets are for 10:35 pm MONDAY. Are you sticking around to climb Monday, or are you leaving on Sunday? I guess we were hoping to still be able to climb Monday, thus maximizing the climbing vs cost ratio.
Or if anyone else if returning Monday afternoon that could drop us off at LAX, that would be super cool.
Let me know.

Ack! I just spent $110 to register for a fencing tournament that weekend so I won't be able to make it. I did reserve a campsite though, not sure if it is transferable.

Yep, after much deliberation (and the fact that the training i was supposed to attend isn't gonna happen) i've decided to join the party. Looks like i'll probably be down there on Thurs? and staying till i can't find anyone to climb with anymore. So if anybody is planning on staying past the weekend send me a message. I'm free to roadtrip til mid-feb.
