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
Multi-stage adventure with four or five phases of different rock styles requiring different techniques.
Up the corner to get hands on horizontal crack. Traverse left to get hands on a rather wobbly rather large rock.
. . (Variation: Instead continue straight up to the top of the right-facing corner (5.11a).
Next over the bulge and right on slab up to small tree. Finish up steep face to top of cliff.
note: Be sure to check the security of this large wobbly rock before trying this route. And of course the belayer or any other member of the party should not stand anywhere near under that rock.
warning: The rock on and around this route has not been climbed much yet, and much of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber - (and if possible, behind a large tree).
Location
Right-facing corner with thin crack starting five feet up, at right side of big low roof.
