Suggested Page Improvements to *Pawtuckaway
Thanks for all the work on these pages Lee, it was interesting for me to visit Pawtuckaway again after all these years and see names on things! It seems like people still love the place and that makes me smile.
Camping is prohibited anywhere else in the park.

Getting to the park is easy...Take exit 5 off of Rt 101 in Raymond NH, then follow signs, however, none of the climbing areas are accessed via the State Park entrance.
To reach Blair Woods or the Horse Farm Parking Area, continue on 156 and take a left onto Deerfield Rd.
For Blair, turn left at the boat launch sign and continue to the parking lot.
For the Horse Farm, continue past the boat ramp and turn left on to Round Pond Road (a short dirt road) to a parking area. If the parking area is full, park on the side of the paved road or risk being towed. From the parking area walk down the dirt road for a little under a mile until you reach round pond. to your left will be round pond bouldering area. To your right is Lake Side Crag and the Hillside Boulders, Walk beyond the hillside to get to upper cliff and lower slabs as well as Boulder Natural etc. There are a few signs to help with getting to the cliffs at this point.
To reach Reservation Rd, from Raymond take Rt 27 to Rt 107. Turn right on to Reservation Rd. Reservation road will turn to dirt. Continue down a curving hill and down more flat road. The most popular areas (boulder natural, round pond, upper cliffs and lower slabs etc.) are accessed by Turning left and driving through an orange gate (Gate #5). Follow the rough road for a few miles bearing left at one point and after a fairly steep often very rough hill look for parking. There are good pullouts a short walk before and after the Boulder Natural trailhead, please use those instead of trying to squeeze into the shoulders on busy days. Hike an obvious trail (on the left) for a few minutes to get to Boulder Natural, continue past to get to all other areas.
You may also drive right up to round pond and park there which is nice for Round pond boulders and Lakeside crag area.
Reservation Rd is closed in winter.
