Access Issue: RI State Park, follow rules and closure times Details

Description

Sea cliff wall, can be windy, faces south and gets plenty of sun.

Some of the rock can be sketch for rope friction, hanging over edges, etc. More of a fun place to check out and go down to the waters edge.

A moderately crowded place, being located in a state park on the island of Jamestown, RI.

Getting There

Approach is quite simple. Drive into the park and take the road going left (east). Follow it and take the first turn right, up the hill to a parking lot. Park there and walk south on the trail that leads through the bushes.

Several hundred yards in you will see a green bench bolted to a cement pad, this is one piece you can use for a TR anchor. Other trees and rocks are available to use as well.

The cliff in front of you is the main site to climb and go down. Although you can traverse across the cliff and there are other areas to try climbing further west.
