Is anybody familiar with the history of the routes at Rimmon? Are there any printed materials about this crag(Books, topos, or the like)? Are the developers still climbing? Have any climbers tried to build a relationship with Manchester Parks and Rec?

Doubt reference is to Rock Rimmon in Stamford, Conn., a notable glacial erratic with 30ft face.

On which climbs in 1970s were made. Is now in McMansion Hell if not dynamited... is probably unavailable.

If you go to Phillips Exeter Academy's Library, The Robert Bates Room, you can find a copy of an old guidebook to Rock Rimmon by Mark Hudon (1975) "A CLimber's Guide to Rock Rimmon"... The other guidebook that has Rock Rimmon in it is the "Manchester Rock, Rock Climbs in the Greater Manchester, Nh area". by Paul Boissonneault, Dave & Marie Saball (1996).

That's all the info I have on the area.
