Access Issue: As of November 2021, there are new parking arrangements. Please follow this guidance. Details

The current parking area is now limited parking, subject to the following guidelines:

No parking weekdays before 4pm. (Use Saltbox Parking Area at these times).
Do not block pump station access gates at any time.
Be careful not to hit or disturb manholes or other infrastructure.

The Saltbox Parking Area is a new resource, available on weekdays and weekends. Don't bushwhack or create new trails from this area.

Torne Brook Road and the trailhead remain a no-parking area. This is to ensure access for emergency personnel.

Inconsiderate or illegal parking here could lead to permanent closure.

Description

Lots of fun moves.

Start up on the brownish rock. Later perhaps trend left to keep going higher.

warning: Loose rock around here, so the belayer or other memhers of the party should stay far away from underneath the climber.

. . . (Lots of vegetation on this rock as of 2016. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).

Location

Brownish rock about four feet right (downhill) from bottom of obvious left-trending crack which is left of the narrow gully in the center of this wall; or eight feet left (uphill) from arete which forms left side of narrow gully in center of this wall.
