Details
Per Diego Concha: I called the DCR today and spoke to a ranger who said they no longer allow climbing at Rattlesnake Rocks because of endangered species that live near the crag and are sending climbers to Quincy Quarries nearby.
Description
To the NW of The Playground, this is a small, less-significant crag in the Rattlesnake Rocks area. It seems almost ignorable, but some may feel it has a few worthwhile moderates. It is a scattered collection of rocks. Nonetheless, it is listed here for completion's sake. There is a roof here that may or may not have been climbed yet.
