It's surrounded by W.M.N.F but the Shell Pond Crags are located on private property subject to a conservation easement held by Greater Lovell Land Trust. The owners and easement holders of the property have been gracious enough to allow climbing to occur on their land, but access is not guaranteed in the future. If you show up and there are numerous cars in the parking lot consider climbing at other nearby Evan’s Notch locations
Description
A unique and aesthetic route. Tak and Jib is the first bolted line from the ground you come to after the large offwidth chimney (Pride and Joy 5.10d). Climb easily to the high first bolt and climb moderate ground, following a long, broken crack. Get to a stance where the crack steepens, and climb somewhat awkwardly through a bulge. Thoughtful climbing out the bulge takes you to a groove with a small stance out right, where you can clip and rest before the business.
Pull onto the magnificent orange wall. Long reaches between perfect incut crimps and jugs takes you through the final headwall to the anchor.
A good route to break into 11c, since the crux is short and easy to read.
