a. Khadejha Area

New York > Gunks > Peterskill

Description

Sheltered from sun and wind, with a large overhang to protect against sudden rain. A few easy routes, with a couple harder routes thrown in.

Getting There

Exit lower parking lot from the left; walk past information kiosk on your right, follow carriage road with fence on right, bear right and go up slight incline (this is the Bunkbed Wall). Continue past the Bunkbed Wall following the blue/yellow-blazed trail with the cliff on your right; when you reach a large overhang, you've arrived. Approach time: about three minutes.

[Hide Comment] See the photo and comment under Anna's Route. The photo in the book and the early app for these routes is not correct. Apologies! (the app has been updated to show these properly) Mike Jun 15, 2017
