Big Cliffs Rock Climbing

The Big Cliffs are on private property.

This area was not on Mountain Project to keep the local climbers accessing this valuable resource to a minimum. Climbing has been going on here for decades, so past practice is used here.

There are a few trad routes mixed in with mostly bolted routes. Older bolts have mostly been replaced as of 2018; as always use your own judgement when considering a route. Most of the bolted lines climb between drill marks from the old sandstone quarry. Top roping can be challenging here due to the rotten top portion of the cliff which leads to better rock below. If you do top rope or Rappel here, be very cautious of the loose rock at the top section of the cliffs. There is a 3 bolt rappel station on top of The Pit that is a good place to practice rappelling.

It’s best to not set up a Top Rope from the top of the cliff on most of the climbs and if you must, please be careful and try not to knock down loose rocks.

Most of the anchors at Logtown have permanent steel carabiners attached. Please attach your own gear to the anchors. The last climber to climb the route can then either lower off (recommended) or rappel from the permanent steel carabiners and clean the route. These anchors are costly and take more than money to replace, please do not top rope directly off the permanent anchors.
