Access Issue: As of November 2021, there are new parking arrangements. Please follow this guidance. Details

The current parking area is now limited parking, subject to the following guidelines:

No parking weekdays before 4pm. (Use Saltbox Parking Area at these times).
Do not block pump station access gates at any time.
Be careful not to hit or disturb manholes or other infrastructure.

The Saltbox Parking Area is a new resource, available on weekdays and weekends. Don't bushwhack or create new trails from this area.

Torne Brook Road and the trailhead remain a no-parking area. This is to ensure access for emergency personnel.

Inconsiderate or illegal parking here could lead to permanent closure.

Description

Dome with a rock perched on it top.
Just west about 30 feet left from a 18-24 inch diameter mature tree (the "Giving Tree").

Right side is a slab with interesting features. Three top-rope routes so far.

Left is an overhanging wall mostly blank except for a crack (unclimbed so far) in its middle. One (contrived) top-rope route at its left end.

Could set up Top-Rope anchor by scrambling up around right side, using static line off trees.
