I've heard theres a bolted route at the gunks but since its mixed in with 500+ trad routes, I havn't located it yet. Unless your looking to do some trad climbing your best bet is some toproping around the Uberfall. Scramble up the 3rd class assent just right of the bulletin board. At the top you can go left and down a little to get to Kens Crack <5.7>, Pheobe <5.10b>, and Boston <5.5>. Theres also an eyebolt between that area and the scramble that is great for toproping a big inside crack to a crux move up and around an overhang. I think that is the CC route.


Good luck!

Jeff
