Details
Warning: much of the climbing at Guernsey State Park is on fractured or otherwise unsound rock and is protected by home-made anchors and bolts. Exercise extreme caution when climbing here: holds and bolt placements that appear sturdy may not be.
Getting There
The all walking way is to walk along the cliff top east until the park boundary which is quite close to a residential A-Frame home and descend the gully along the boundary fence until getting down to the overhanging roof & shelf of the white limestone cliff. Walk up stream under these roofs until getting to the deep dark red rock.
You can also rappel using some of the anchors shown in the photo.
