Description

An easily accessible but hidden crag on the north east side of Cape Breton. This is adventure climbing with no fixed gear or any real evidence of people. Goes without saying that all lines here are trad routes and sometimes you have to get creative for getting down.

Getting There

Follow the Cabot trail from either side to Black Brook Beach parking lot (signed) at 46.77634, -60.33358. The crag itself is across the road at 46.774435, -60.336059. There isn't really a trail, just get back on Cabot Trail from the parking, cross the road, get up over the embankment by the power pole and then unpleasantly bushwack and boulder hope for 3 minutes to the base of the first routes.
