Description Suggest change

A nice sandstone spot with multiple short (20-25ft) top ropes equipped with top anchors, as well as a limited number of boulders at the base. Developed ca. 1999. Nice kid zone. Located off Route 31 in Forbes State Forest. Short approach (~5 minutes). Variety of routes mainly on the easier side; though there a few more challenging lines. There are a couple of unclimbed boulders that will go in the double digits. 

Getting There Suggest change

Off Route 31 in Forbes State Forest. There is a small parking lot on the North side of route 31....easy to miss on your first pass. AllTrails will take you there on Google maps directly: alltrails.com/explore/recor…. Take the Jeff Barr Memorial Trail and immediately take the first right where the trial splits. Follow this trail until it splits. The right fork takes you below the cliff line and among the boulders. Left fork gains you access to the top of the cliff. 

Here is the address of Laurel Hill Trout Farm Inc. that is 531ft away from the parking lot. Address: 4360 PA-31, Somerset, PA 15501
