Description Suggest change

This is one of the best after-work areas on Cape Ann due to having easy and short access and the number of routes in a wide range of difficulties and styles in a tiny area.

Getting There Suggest change

Park at the pulloff on the right after the cemetery on Fernald St. There is room for two cars here. Follow the dirt road/path in, and turn left at the obvious wide path. Follow this down until you seen a boulder cluster on your left. It is maybe a 5 minute approach once you know the way.
