Description Suggest change

Adding this "route" as a placeholder for a previously undocumented wall that looks like it has some good potential. 

At least one obvious trad line up the big crack on the middle-right side of wall that looks mostly 5.4 with maybe a move of 5.9 getting through the low roof. 

Left side of the face has slab that might be difficult to protect; right side has typical Catoctin blocky overhanging stuff that could be very fun and harder. I haven't explored top rope anchor potential on top of the wall yet but think there should be some trees to use up there.

There are also various potential boulder problems, either traversing, finishing low, or very highball.

Location Suggest change

Up the slope from the main boulders by the stream and to the left (ie upstream). 39.62181N, 77.43331W.

Protection Suggest change

Trad gear, top rope anchor on trees/gear, or crash pads
