Description
Most famous and heavily used climbing area in Acadia. Toprope or rappel in to climb here.
Anchors are solid steel bars pounded into the top of the cliff because years of toproping here has killed many trees.
Excellent place for beginners to learn about climbing, the beauty of nature, and placing gear in a wet crack.
Beware high tides as your ropes will get soaked and your gear will be salt encrusted. the rock that the routes start on just gets underwater at the highest tide points. Tides change rapidly here, keep an eye on your time and check out the tide charts before you come.
