Description

Foundation of Custis Memorial Parkway has old blocks that are separated enough to create perfect finger jams and the lucky jug or two, about 20ft plus top out, sharp edges provide crimps, lots of crack at a perfect 90 degree angle. Plenty of routes in a very urban environment, expect some people as along a paved running and bike path, but most will not get in the way as there is grass for the setup and belay, definitely enough room for a crash-pad as well.

Getting There

Approach via Washington Old Dominion Trail, can park by the basketball courts or along the street if you're lucky, access by foot from four mile run as well
