On the bouldering (west) side, please do not hang out up top or go exploring above the main cliff line. It is private property and we need to keep a low profile. The owner has been hands off so far. Let's try to ensure things stay that way please. Hanging out up top could cause problems with the property owner.
Please do not climb above the roped climbs. Hanging out on the edge of the cliff without ropes is dangerous and the last thing we want is to have an ambulance/injury/fatality there. Please don't endanger crag access through short-sighted behavior!
Please be upstanders and take good care of the crag to help preserve access. Don't leave your trash, and even pack out any trash somebody else might have left behind.
Description
An outstanding collection of 20+ boulder problems, with some short and steep, some slabby and techy, and some legit puckerfest highballs. Many stay dry more or less year round, and others will be drenched from November to May. Several lines here would be classics in any area, let alone central OH. Some have large flat landings, but others will need all the pads you can muster to make 'em safe.

Getting There
This area is the furthest down on the left, to the... you guessed it... west. Easiest access is by walking all the way along Marne Rd to the large oil tank, and take the trail just right of the tank ~100 feet up the hill from there. You will hit Contortionist as you reach the cliff line. If carrying a quiver of pads, this is certainly the easiest access point. Pro tip: drop off the pads in the pullout, go park in the parking lot, and then leisurely stroll back unencumbered.
You can also walk along the trail under the cliff line all the way back towards rest of the crag.
