Owls head in the dacks

Anyone ever been? Just went last weekend and climbed a line on the far left side of the cliff that doesn't seem to be in the guide. Seems weird because it was very well defined and took great gear maybe 5.4 or so. Just wondering if I read the book wrong or it may not be in it, but if you get a chance it's a great little crag I recommend it. Lots of easier stuff that takes good gear. Thanks for reading.

Well, Owl's Head is the sort of crag where you can climb whatever appeals to you. Some's easy...some's not so easy. The lines at the right end are pretty long (compared to the obvious cracks there).

Great blueberries on that hill too.

Thanks mike it's a good little crag. I don't put too much on the guide I was just curious. Thanks again

The left side is generally regarded as a top roping area, and I was told/read most of the lines are around 5.6

It's all in the adk rock climbing guide.

There's a couple nice ow's there in the middle section. Left end is a bit softer. It's a cool place for sure, views are nice, not a whole lot of crowds usually. When its hot, it's not the place to be. The sun really bakes that side. You can find some 4th class lines and work your way up from the bottom too. It really has something for everyone. From the top of Breeze Crack, one of the middle OW's, the second section up the slabby part with a couple small horizontal cracks on the way, rates my guess around a 10ish. everything else there is probably a 7 or below. Very popular TR spot, or Trad learning place, some dude's were mock leading last time we were there.

The climb your describing is not in the current guide book. It gets climbed a decent amount. I would say that your 5.4 grade is right on.

Thanks will that's what I was looking for
