Description
Some of the best long routes in Bolton. Most routes require a few pieces of gear or a bold head to be lead save for a few all-sport exceptions.
Getting There (Updated Spring 2016)
Hiking time is about 25 minutes for a good hiker knowing the trail:
-Otherwise here is the lengthy but detailed directions as per the 2015 Fall trail day trail that was finalized.
-Begin from the quarry and head past the kiosk toward the upper quarry.
-Continue right around the shoulder of the quarry and take the second left fork with a small yellow sign that says "82/Carcass".
-Continue up steep hiking for 3 or 4 minutes until you are at the top of the quarry at a T- intersection. Turn right for Carcass, left for 82.
-Continue up steeply following yellow trail markers until you reach a flatter logging road with small boulders at the intersection.
-Turn right and continue for 400 feet.
-When you spot the bright orange posted signs, look for an obvious trail on your left marked with pink flagging.
-Continue up this steep trail past a few water trenches until it splits left or right.
-The left passage is blocked by branches, go right for 30 or so feet until the trail is blocked by branches again and a small trail can be found splitting off to the left. If you somehow get to the big downed birch, you went too far.
-Continue up one final hill until the trail evens out and starts clearing into very pretty berry bushes.
-Continue for 5 or so minutes until you hit another logging road. From here the top of the October Wall can already be seen.
-Continue downhill (right) for about 500 feet until you reach a cairn and a trail marked with pink flagging on your left.
-Follow this down and to the base of the cliff where it hits the cliff under the route "Block Party".
