Tumble Down Dick Mt.

Description 

This area has boulders and some crag climbing. I was there in 1982 and used trad. gear. This is a schist rock mt. The west side is slab. In the center of this area, midway up the Mt. it is best for climbing on a 80ft crag amphitheater. The west side of the amphitheater is easier than the east side. The east side has steep cracked walls with shallow corners. Clean, solid and very short walk on a trail through open woods to these crags. The summit rock of the Mt. has nothing to offer for climbing and is very dirty. climbs now range from 5-4 to 5-12 and some are bolted.

Getting There 

West of West Bethel is North Road. Turn off Route to go across river and turn west or left onto North Road. Travel a few miles until rock outcropping and boulders are visible from road. The good climbing is uphill and west of boulders via trail.
