The Great Roof Area

International > N America > Canada > New Brunswick > Welsford > Eagle Rock

Description

The area is shaped like an amphitheater with the Great roof on the far right and the wall ending on the left near Powder Greens. There is little room for development in this area due to the shape of the rock and the abundance of ledges breaking the cliff up.

Getting There

Walk down the high way until you see the rock formation, walk up the boulder field heading towards the cliff.
