  Wonderful site for walking. The rock climbing looked amazing. Fun for the entire family!
• Matt DeCoste

  Don't ask how the rock climbers get the rope up there. They use technical gear & clip into the bolts in the rock. A "lead climber" has to climb the rock while a belayer assists from the ground.

  Be sure to wear walking shoes and lots of water
