Shot of 1 of the 2 routes we played on "Double Chin". This is one of the longer routes and is very do able. I am not much of a route climber and we did not free climb the entire route but with 2 difficult sections I would think this route would be in the 5.11 range if done clean.

Place i call Flood Rocks, outside of South Fork, PA.<br> This is one of the higher sections. Tons of 10-15' high routes that are great for bouldering as well
on the 2nd layer of stone probably about half way up Double Chin, after this it gets a little tricky as you approach the crux near the top

Climbing Partner getting into the first rest area and second layer of rock on Double Chin, which is a bit different and interesting to say the least
Double Chin route on main wall, pretty much where you finish it. There is a big inlet I am sitting in. Top out could be done but with the over hang at the end and lack of holds up top it's difficult.
Getting set up at the main wall of Flood Rocks for some November climbing in SWPA.
Main wall at Flood Rocks, you can see this section has a bit of an over hang to it, so it leans out just a little bit. Notice the different layers of rock.
Wider view of another photo. You can see to the left where the trees are a lower section. This section is ~ 10 feet lower than the route I am on in the photo. To the far left of that ledge section is another route we messed around on that is fun.
Flood Rocks, another shot of the main wall from a different angle. The highest route is 37.5 feet measured.
Main wall on Double Chin route looking for my next move
Easy warm up route, fun. At front near entrance before going around to main wall. Top out is possible or just end on the last hold of the over hang.
