Description

This area appears to on GLCT property where rock climbing is prohibited. Please obey all Land Trust rules. Climbs are listed for informational/historic purposes.

This is the area closest to the Granite Rd parking spot mainly covering the cliff-band that parallels Granite Rd and crosses the power lines. The climbs are on both sides of the power lines.

Getting There

From the Granite Rd parking go strait to the power lines, right before the power lines turn right onto the green trail. After crossing two man made bridges 2 minutes from the car look for a swamp crossing made with stones. From here you either stay on the green trail to the warmup wall/Swampy Pants or cross the stepping stones to get to Fern Gully.

The warmup wall is about 50 yards behind Swampy Pants.
