Description
With its many small crags and superb views you may want to stop and climb something along the hike. If so bring a small rack and a rope to see what you can find. The best crags are found near the summit.The routes are short but of the same high quality as neighbouring Dickey Ledge. The big east facing slab that is seen from Rt. 49 is more suitable for skiing than climbing.
As of right now there are four small crags with established routes on them listed in descending elevation, west to east and left to right if looking up the Welch Mtn. trail they are, The Summit Cliff, The Nursery, Grape Juice Wall, and The Hikers Wall. More info soon.
