Description
Some of the best hard sport climbing in Vermont. Come with a rack of draws and some determination.
After speaking with many out of state climbers the consensus is that the steep wall is hard. I've never heard anyone call any route up here soft and numerous people have called Doggfather, Little Red Hen, and Encryption the hardest of their grade compared to almost anywhere else in the Northeast. Let this be a warnin' to ya!
Unlike most crags in Vermont, MP is pretty much comprehensive for the steep wall save a few variations and linkups (though they are quality!)

Getting There
To get to the steep wall, hike past the lower main wall until the ground rises and locate a fixed line on your left.
The route Team America begins halfway up the fixed line. The rest of the routes are up on the ledge with the first route at the anchor being Encryption/Firewall.

Fixed Draws
A local ethic seems to have developed accepting the use of fixed or left draws for projecting on the steep wall at 82 as they are out of sight of everyone but climbers so please leave them if they aren't yours and remember to eventually come back for them if they are.
Be vigilant with inspecting fixed draws on this cliff. Some of them have been hanging for multiple seasons and are in the sun all day anytime there is sun to be had.
