Description

There are a few worthwhile boulder problems on slick water-formed rock. The rock itself is beautiful - but the friction is most certainly not. Climb some problems and take a dip in the adjacent swimming hole!

Getting There

Park in the AT/LT parking lot along Route 103 and walk down the small footpath to the Upper Clarendon Gorge Falls. Walk across the suspension bridge - there is bouldering down in the river to your right and a great compression pillar down to your left.
