Comments: Do climbers take a dip in the pond afterwards? Is the water nice to swim in?

Comments: Great route. I enjoyed the various sections. I agree that the start is a little trickier for shorties - I could grab what I wanted from the ground easily. The crack midway up was fun and the top out was really cool. I'm surprised this wasn't called Finland.

Comments: I didn't use that left hand at all... damn. I think I did this hard mode. I wedged myself in the corner inside of the rounded fin and wormed my way up on nothingness.

Comments: I walked by this on the way down on Saturday. A chainsaw will be called for. And yeah... it changes the start just a little.

Comments: Is the rock quality any good John? or is this just as bad as the approach sounds to be?

Comments: This description always makes me smile. I came across this spot on a map where it was referred to as "Russell Crag". Looks like it'd be initially approached the power lines or maybe Cox Farm Rd?
Matt, is this spot obscure enough for you?
Also... Parker Ledge is the rock seen on the west side of 93 between Tripoli Rd and Lincoln. Not listed here on MP yet. Could be the next Main Cliff? :)

Location: NH : Bryant Ledge
By: Jeffrey LeCours When: Apr 17, 2013 | view comment >> |
Comments: I wonder if this used to be (or is now) known as Parker Ledge. I saw it listed as this on one topo... and the street you park on is Parker Ledge. However, other topos list it as Bryant Ledge.

Comments: Addendum to a previous comment I made:
According to Joe Cote, “There is a common misconception that has been perpetuated in some guidebooks about the name of Band M Ledge. It was not a mistake, as some believe. While it is true that there are AMC maps with "B and M Railroad" in close proximity to the ledge, the USGS 1958 topo for the Ossipee Lake quandrangle clearly identifies Band M Ledge, its sister Whitton Ledge, as well as the Boston and Maine RR”

Comments: It seems like the east side of Bear Mountain has a steep cliff (west of where Panorama Lane ends). Is this true? Is this the cliff that offers no winter climbing and is on private property?

Comments: I was interested in finding out what happened to the pond over the past few years and after a few queries I came across this great write-up on Simpson Pond (now known as Moeckel Pond) and the mill that was sat at the south tip.
www.moeckelpond.com/A%20Brief%20History%20of%20Moeckel%20Pon>>>
So the pdf mentions: "After becoming widowed, Gertrude C. Moeckel transferred property to Gertrude E. Moeckel Linton and James R. Linton in 1963. Upon the death of Gertrude Linton (2006), the prop... more >>

Comments: This photo shortens the right side a bit. The best line is up the left leaning ramp in the center, angle out right under the roof crack. The bolted line to the right of it is a nice face climb on small edges and nubs but can be a bit reachy.

Comments: Two years ago you would be standing in a beautiful pond to take this shot. The pond has been drained consists of tall grass in muck. It does make it easier to access the bottom of this main wall... but I'd trade that for the pond any day. :'(

Comments: The draws are on an old aid line that goes free at hard 12. The line to the left of it goes easier at 12 and is a better line in my opinion.

Comments: You can also see a climber (yellow shirt) on Things You Should Have Learned in Kindergarten as well as a climber on Hypocrisy.
As more trees continue to come down, it's only a matter of time before people start looking up from where the trail splits and wonder what else could be cleaned up and climbed (only to realize that Bradley did it years ago :) -- Jimmy Crack Corn)
