Description Suggest change

Located inside Hoosier National Forest, most of Hemlock Cliffs is open to climbing. It's mentioned online that most of the rock is dirty or choss, but there are boulders and small walls scattered throughout Hoosier National Forest to be found.

If you are in the area, please document it! I'm hoping that listing this area will make Indiana a little less barren.

Getting There Suggest change

From Hatfield road look for National Forest sign for Hemlock cliffs. Follow gravel road approximately 1/2 mile to parking area at trailhead. Please follow no roadside parking signs on way in, as road is narrow. Plenty of room for parking in lot at trailhead. Posted sign advises where climbing and rappelling is prohibited along trail.
