Adirondack Climbing Conditions

When is a good time to start climbing outside, is there a way to get some information about the snow or wetness at each wall? |
|
Call the Mountaineer in Keene Valley.....lots of climbing in the Dacks should be dry right now though. |

Any time is a good time to climb outdoors;) |

anybody been out to wallface yet this season? looking to get out next weekend. |

Brochacho: Is that all Trad? |

Wallface is in the heart of the high peaks and will not be easily accessible right now. Streams are high, everything will be wet, mud, slush, and walls dripping for a bit more. Early to mid May-ish is a more likely time to attempt a visit to Wallface. |

Be sure to check Peregrine falcon closures before you go. Shelving Rock is closed already: |

Hey hey, just got back from climbing in the Valley today. Surprisingly, we don't have much snow left in the passes (Cascade and Chapel Pond). Beer Walls are totally dry, as is the Spiders Web, Creature wall, and pretty much anything on the north side of the pass (south facing). The southern side of the pass, namely the Chap slabs, Tilman's area and the Tanager face are still wet. Pitchoff is bone dry as well, from the Roaches area all the way to the start of Pete's. Enjoy! |
