02. Ladyslipper

New Hampshire > Merrimack Valley > Dumplingtown Hi… > 1. Greater Ladyslippe…

Description

Ladyslipper is a cliff band of varying slabbiness that stands around thirty feet tall at its highest point. The stone is quite interestingly featured; a long, horizontal crack on the left, a huge, overhanging lip in the middle, and a sittable hueco to the right provide opportunity for some unique lines. Most of these will be seriously highball.

Some segments of the slab seep a bit, but most will dry in about a day. 

Please don't trample any wild lady slippers! The eponymous wildflower is common in this area, so keep an eye out.

Getting There

When approaching from the parking lot, this area falls after The Quarry and before The Left End. It's somewhat obscured by large trees, but the large lip feature will be easily visible from the trail.
