Description

Mount Tom State Reservation has ice climbs.

Getting There

The area can be accessed from Christopher Clark Road.

Approach for climbs at the northern end of the Mount Tom ridge: from Christopher Clark Road, walk down the road a mile or so until you get to a big boulder in the middle of the road. A few hundred feet past that is a pullout on the left. Roughly halfway between the boulder and the pullout, bushwhack into the woods, aiming for a faint snow ramp that diagonals up and left through the steep hillside above you. Follow this ramp to the wide open talus field (it won't be obvious as talus when looking at it from afar). The start of Diagonal Gully and Birch Tree Gully is just to the right of the top of this talus/snow field. The start of Scottish Gully is to the left of the top of the talus/snow field. Both Birch Tree Gully and Scottish Gully will be visible from the talus/snow field.
