Summary:

All Trad climbing

Lat / Long: 44.054475, -71.167758

description

Approximately 1100ft (335m) long slabs along the right-side of White Horse Ledge. Lots of gorgeous friction climbing, with generally little protection.

approach

Park below the hotel, along the access road for the maintenance buildings, rather than in the main hotel parking area. Walk up towards the hotel, along the right-most edge, where the parking/ramp curves back towards the hotel, there is an obvious track up towards the cliffs. Continue up to the cliff, an easy 5 minute hike.

descent notes

From the top, walk along the trail to climbers right, descending the col between this and Cathedral Ledge. Initially follow blue blazes, until the trails meet, then follow yellow blazes back to the base of the ledge.

With two ropes, some of the routes can be descended by rappel, e.g. "The Slabs Direct" or "Standard Route", "The Quartz Pocket" variant.
