A few of us hadn't been climbing as much as we would have liked to. So we decided we needed to go on a climbing trip, and decided November would be a good time to go climbing in Joshua Tree National Park. Six of us went: Cam, Cam's Mom, John, Luke, Brooke, and Me. John rapelling after setting up a top rope. Me climbing. Luke climbing. Brooke climbing. Cam climbing. Brooke Belaying. Unfortunately for this poor joshua tree, Brooke underestimated her own strength. It fell over when she ran into it and gave it a great big bear hug. Brooke kept herself occupied with a pine cone and some peanuts while we waited for John and Luke to set up a couple ropes.
