West facing cliff with a short approach

The top of the cliff can be reached by hiking to the extreme climber's left (climber's right is more ledgy and 3rd-4th class).

Getting There

5 minutes

Park at the dirt lot on the corner of Frontier Town Road and NY-9 (43.945509, -73.730988). Cross NY-9 and enter the woods at a cairn, through some small pines. Follow the trail past an abandoned shack on your right, continue straight (slightly left) for about 4 minutes until you reach a cairn on a tree stump. Turn right at the cairn, and walk up the hill to the base of Arm Crack and Dark Side of the Loon.
