Description
Low-angle slabs, non-technical to easy fifth-class. Definitely not a modern rope gun's destination, Coney Mountain provides little in the way of technical challenge. What it does offer is an easy scramble up open slopes to one of the finest views in the Adirondacks. From Coney's summit, a 360 degree view reveals the High Peaks, the western Adirondacks, the north slopes of Blue Mountain, and the enticing south face of Mt. Morris, where Big Tupper Ski area is located.
Getting There
One of the most convenient crags in this region, there is a small parking area for Coney Mountain on the east side of Route 30 about fifteen minutes' drive north of Long Lake.
From the parking area, walk the trail for a couple minutes, to the second set of planks, then cut off and up the ridge right of the trail. An 8-minute, moderate bushwhack leads to the closest slab.
