2013 Closures MORE INFO >>> Big Lost Cove Cliffs are closed to climbing due to the local falcon population This information is a public crowdsourcing effort between the Access Fund, and Mountain Project. You should confirm closures, restrictions, and/or related dates. Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment

Description 

P1 - Start as for Boardwalk, climbing straight up to the low set of rappel anchors. From here, head straight up and bypass the roof on the right, climbing either the large corner above or (more fun and less dirty) the face directly right of the large corner. Belay on healthy ledge.

P2 - Head straight up through large and completely detached blocks. Be careful, pull lightly! Escape left through a hole and traverse left to the Broach anchors.

Logistically, this route is easier to run into a single pitch. Be smart with your rope management.

Location 

Locate the large corner on the left of Boardwalk's face. That's your target!

Protection 

Standard rack.
