Description Suggest change

Easy walk-on access from Roger's Rock Campground with a short trail from the Cove Boulders. a good warm up wall or beginner intro and a great diversion if you're already set up with a campsite but backing off the boat approach to Roger's slide due to weather or time.

Lot's of opportunity (including the far more committing routes on the official "Cove Wall" above and left (Adirondack Rock, V2 Book2, p 91).

The two most accessible and obvious lines are before the "Mooring Line Descent Route" and offer a mountaineering vibe with challenging but manageable over-hanging top-outs and direct starts that might prove both exciting and frustrating for a new climber. Top ropes are an easy set-up using the Mooring Line a bit further down the trail.

Getting There Suggest change

From within Roger's Rock campground, ride down past the beach and park as close to the Cove Boulders as possible (there is parking for the association and pavillion, as well as over-flow parking for island campers). Continue to skirt the cove past the last large campsite, stay left if it use and pass the broken 'grimpers' state falcon sign. Continue on a well worn trail on the water's edge and look up left before the Mooring Line Descent Route.
