Description
Located in Camden Hills State Park directly above the Guide Wall, The Spot is currently the best option for bouldering in the Camden Hills. A good concentration of large boulders, often tumbled on one another, offer a variety of fun and challenging problems with generally good landings. You'll want to bring at least a couple pads as some of the best lines can be in the 15'+ range, especially at the Hidden Wall sector. The majority of the obvious lines have been climbed at this point, but some of the most impressive lines and faces remain unclimbed. The rock type is gniess, a very grippy, often sharp rock that is typical of the park. The climbing tends to follow exciting features: arêtes, grooves, cracks, slabs, and roofs. There’s plenty to go at in the lower grades, as well as being a fun and sunny place to simply hang out.
