| Even tho we've been banging back and forth between beautiful dry daze with very low humidity, and then torrential rain storms, thing are mostly dry. That's not to say that some climbs don't have some seeps, and some trails the occasionally muddy spot. But overall you can do almost anything you want to do with impunity! Especially if you can grab the nice day on short notice. [spell retired]

Route of the Moment
Kindred Spirits -
5.10c
This fine route is located near the Kancamagus Highway, on the Meadow Brook Slab, the clean, south facing wall 1/4 mile west of Green's Cliff. It offers excellent face climbing, spectacular views and plenty of solitude- a wonderful wilderness adventure and climbing comparable to the best on Whitehorse. It's not exactly new, but it's never been documented anywhere. |
