Description
Very secluded slab climbing on high quality stone, up to 3 pitches tall. The right side is shorter, with some steeper sections with corners and cracks. Expect to deal with some vegetation at the base of the climbs since the cliff receives few visits, but once above, the rock looks to be super nice almost white granite. There is plenty of room for new routing.
Getting There
See Glenn's maps. From the very small pull-off on the Kanc at 43.99704, -071.38081, ride bike back a few hundred yards to the river. Cross the river (usually knee deep) to a forest road connector and ride maybe 5 minutes to join Rob Brook road, bearing right. Continue on Rob Brook rd until you get to Swan's Junction, a large clearing with a kiosk. Take a left there and bike another 5-10 minutes, crossing 2 bridges. After a clearing, look for a somewhat overgrown road up to the right at 44.02058, -071.41216 that takes you into large clearing. Go left, following this maybe 10 minutes to old logging landing on the right. Take the obvious opening straight ahead and bushwhack northeast.
If the river is unfordable, you will have to park at the other end of Rob Brook rd at bear Notch rd, and ride all the way up it until you get to Swan's Junction from the other direction (easy, but a long ride). You could also shwack over and down from The Alcove if you were dedicated and adventurous (easy to get lost the first time)
