New wall at Bald Hill

Bald Hill, Short Wall.

Located just above the far left of the bottom tier, the short wall contains overhanging cracks of varying sizes that lead to low angle slab top outs. There is currently a faint climbers trail that leads to the base of the climbs. Hike to the overlook at the top of Bald Hill. Keep on the marked trail heading down the hill. About halfway down, look for a faint climbers trail on your left. The trail leads to the base of the climbs.

From left to right

Scarred by an Avocado 5.9+ G
12m//N/T FA: M. Heffler November 2015
Climb the overhanging hand/fist crack with a tree stump at the base
gear .75 to 4 (larger gear would protect easier terrain at the top)

Candy Apple 5.4 G
6m/N/T FA: K. McClellan, M. Heffler November 2015
Found in the middle of the tier, climb up the back of the chimney. A good climb to practice chimney technique. This route favors those of shorter stature
gear .4 to .75

Invisible Bear 5.8+ G
12m/N/T FA: K.McClellan, M.Heffler 2015
Just past Candy Apple, there are two parallel cracks (one finger and one hand). Climb the slightly overhanging cracks to access the mellow slab that leads to the tree anchor.
gear .5 to 4

This area should be named Bear Mountain rather than Bald Hill. It has been referred to as Bear Mountain in the last 2 editions of the New Brunswick Guidebook
