Main Pillar

This is the biggest and most reliable flow on the upper tier, though it often bakes in the sun and can become delaminated and dangerous. Be careful on sunny days when belaying in this amphitheater, there are often appliance-sized ice chunks laying around at the bottom of the cliff.

Climb a small bulge to a stance, then up the pillar, which often forms with mushrooms/cauliflowers and discontinues icicles. The mushrooms can offer decent rests but it's steep nonetheless!

From the entrance to Bolton Quarry where the summer parking lot is, either walk right around the lower tier climbs or left on the hiking trail through a short, wooded section to get to the base of the climbs in the right amphitheater. There are 3 obvious lines in the amphitheater, yet they come in very different each year and receive lots of sun. This is the big pillar in the middle corner.

You can walk to the top of this route easily by following the hiking trail on the left to the top of the cliffs. There are plenty of trees to set up a TR and longer statics are helpful to extend the anchor point to the lip of the climb. There's also a fixed anchor on climber's left with a rap ring. For TRing comfortably, I recommend using a 70m rope to extend the belay below the ledge and off to the left. The route can obviously be lead as well.
