Fun moves up a featured arete (5.7) splashed with patina is the name of the game, but unfortunately it's over all too soon. This problem is a good introduction to bouldering in general and perfectly suited as a warmup for the more difficult problems nearby.

A sit start can be done and is slighty harder (about 5.9 or so) in difficulty and adds a few more quality moves.

(V1) on a right-slanting arete.

Make some off-balance moves to get established on the bouldder and then work the featured arete to the top. The start is a bit tricky for the grade (5.9) but the landing is nice and flat which encourages one to go for it.

(V-easy) on the west face of the  Voices Boulder.

This is a technical lieback problem with slippery hand and footholds that require a bit of thought. Tough for the grade and best done when shady or cool.

Hang start off slopers near the left arete, reach for the three finger "smiley" hold (sidepull) with the right hand, bump to a sloper and then more slopers to the juggy arete. Finish up nice patina jugs just left of

This problem isn't listed in the Joshua Tree Bouldering Guide but is an obvious line with some good moves that's worth a go when in the area.
