The center of the cliff contains a few quality walls. Home to the popular Family Picnic and Father's Day and new climbs of Fuck Rumney, Breaking the Wishbone, Radius, and Ulna.

Getting There Suggest change


If taking the sugar shack approach:


When you get to the large clearing, locate a very odd looking and tall stump. It's about 10 feet high. Cut into the woods following an easy contour of land. After a few minutes, trend right until the trees thin out. Trend left looking for a huge highball boulder. Cut into the boulders here and if all goes well you should end under Golf Ball Sized Urethra and , just left of Family Picnic.

If taking the Timberline approach:

Follow yellow flagging across the stream and up through the woods staying near the boulders. Don't get drawn to the right away from the cliff where it's a little easier. Be on the lookout for a huge pointed highball boulder. Cut into the boulders here and if all goes well you should end under Golf Ball Sized Urethra and just left of Family Picnic.
