Description

Large slab bisected by a 3 foot right-facing corner. Not often climbed, the rock has a lot of lichen.

Getting There

Note the GPS coordinates. Could not find any trails. You can:

a) bushwhack uphill about 325 yards from a point on the road 400 yards before the A.T. trail junction.
b) bushwhack about 250 yards climbers left from the Appalachian Trail where it turns right and steeply uphill past the Upper Ledges.
c) bushwhack from the A.T. above the crag.
