Description 

Nice single pitch climbing in the sun. If you have read the guide-book you wouldn't think this area is worth the visit, but recent years have seen many new routes; many of them bolted sport climbs.

For best information see neclimbs.com and read Ed Webster's book.


Getting There 

Park across the street from Attitash's Bear Peak in the lot for Thorne Pond. Hike around the pond and continue on to the Saco River. Wade across the river (there may be a fortunately placed log to help your passage) and then up the hill to the clearly visible cliff. Be cautious when crossing the river, during high water this may be impossible to do safely.

Flying Jib and short circuit are good mixed and traditional climbs.
