Climbing Near Watchung, New Jersey

A slabby face with a great view. This face is directly next to the larger cliff's edge, but is protected with fencing. Vegetation is abundant, but paying attention to it is part of the climbing challenge. Be careful of glass on the ground and look for the best pad placements you can find. Once at the rock, this face is directly next to the fence.

This is the most convenient face of the boulder, with flat pad placements and a fun climbing style. The center-right of the wall is the easiest to climb, with several solid pinches, slopers, and even jugs leading to an easy top out. To its left is a more difficult section, but certainly doable.This face is seen well in the picture showing "bouldering space 1" that was taken by the first person to document Mountain Top here, and is still on the Mountain Top area's main page. If facing the view of Millburn town from on top of the boulder, this wall is on the side of the rock to your right.

I found this place hiking, looks ok to climb with only a crash pad. It's at the top of the cliff but outside the gate, so think you're allowed to climb it. One boulder, has a lot of holds and has about 40ft of climbing space, varying from heights of 5ft to 20ish ft. There is also a rock about 8ft tall and wide near it if you want to practice on that as well. both spots stay pretty dry, rain a few hours beforehand doesn't affect them. If approaching from the parking lot on glen ave you will be able to see a cliff. work your way up to the top of it via the trails, then move off the main trail, to the smaller one that leads to the scenic overlook walk along the fence and you should be able to both spots within 100ft of each other.
