Description Suggest change

An exciting Adirondack adventure rock climb!

While this route is interesting, engaging, and fun, it is also a crumbling choss pile in spots that would not be a great lead for the timid. Test every hold, place gear where you can, and make sure your belayer is wearing a helmet (and maybe using a grigri too). I pulled down pounds of obvious loose rock, but there is more stuff that will come down. Eventually we'll be left with just a great clean rock climb.

Start up the left side of the free standing pillar. Go straight up from there through a 5.7R section of orange rock (protects with an RP), past a left facing corner and onto a ledge. Crank up the obvious widening (and pretty wonderful) crack above.

Location Suggest change

Just to the left of Three Degrees. Start on the left side of the "hourglass-shaped" pillar.

Protection Suggest change

Standard rack, double 3" and a 4" were helpful
