Description 

A small crag with few good traditional climbs located just north of the Adirondacks. Frequented by St. Lawrence students who did most of the establishing. Beautiful area especially in the fall.

Getting There 

Located on Tooley Pond Road in Degrasse. Park at a yellow gate and hike up the hill on an old logging road. Once at the top of the hill, look for a slightly hidden kern on the right. Follow the herd path for a minute. Overall approach ~ 5 min.
