Description Suggest change

Interesting climbing on both lower face and upper arete. Too bad it has this grassy walk in the between them.

. . Together with the route to its right, lots of interesting climbing for setting up one top-rope.

Start on left side of face, and up to left of rock perched on top of face. Next walk up about 30 feet to another face which forms the left edge of R-facing corner/crack on left side of gully.

Up the arete which forms the left edge of that face to its top. Stop there, or ...
to reach top of cliff, walk a couple of steps to a sloping rock and up its left side.

warning: Loose rock is still a concern here. Belayer or other members of party should not stand anywhere near 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 Suggest change

Find the wide dirty gully which forms the left edge of the low left section of the main rock of Manayunk. Spot left-facing corner / wide crack on which forms left side of the top section of that gully. Next spot small eight-foot wall down below left from that crack -- on the left side of lower part of gully. This route is on a 15-20 ft high face "around the corner" beyond down left from below from that.

For ideas how to set up Top-Rope, see description of this Manayunk sector.

Protection for Trad leading is unknown and likely inadequate.
