Description Suggest change

Cube about 10 to 12 feet tall. Rock is a dark shade of red/brown/black.

The sides of the boulder are aligned pretty well to a compass:

  • South side has the easiest climbing, the entire side being littered with useable holds.
  • West side is smooth and almost vertical, with a few small crimps to balance on your way up.
  • North side is overhung and has a single hard and proud problem in the center, "This Warship is Sinking".
  • East side has many interesting cracks and crimps, giving problems from V4 - V10. The hardest problem on this boulder, "How Long is Now Sit", is on this face.

Most of the established problems on this boulder are not listed here, but rather in the Long Island Bouldering guidebook on Gunks App.

The whole thing is in the intertidal zone, so climb at low tide.

Getting There Suggest change

Walk 400 feet west from the steps. It's the first obviously climbable rock. You can see it as you walk down the stairs.
