Scary lead
Missing rock makes it scary and hard to protect the first pitch... not much to hold on to if you think this is a 5.6... Second pitch is a lot of fun, climbing up the corner in a crack

Red Point ascent by: maymarmalade on 2004-05-29
(View Climbing Log)
Classic climb, like a run-out sports climb
Pins at almost every crucial spot. Can be done in one pitch. Depending if your second is a newbie or not. When I first followed it, I wanted the rope to be taut but it was impossible to go under the roof while the leader was pulling, and the leader didn't want the follower to swing outwards if fallen (then the follower will have to be lowered and climb from the ground). In this case, this climb is better done in two pitches, anchored at pin on top of roof.

Great, long slab
All the pitches besides the last pitch is easier than 5.4. Last pitch is a chimney, so give your baby backpack to your follower. Great and beautiful scenery next to Chapel Pond and other mountains across the road. Very busy climb, all year around. There are free camp sites along the bottom of the climb. Look for camping markers.

One move wonder...
Right underneath the first pin, it's a high reach (for short people) to the bomber horizontal crack 15 feet off the ground. Small pro, on the first pitch. Great climb. This is my first climb at the Gunks.

Easy for its rating...
Like many of the climbs in the Birdsboro, it's rating is much harder, meaning the climb is easier, at least compared to other outdoor climbing areas. May seem difficult if you're not used to sustained overhanging climbs.
This is my favorite climb in this area, because all the holds are there... There's one big move towards the end, but it's a hallehujah hold :)

Great local practice climbs
Rocks sometimes feel sharp or sweaty depending on the weather. Very short climbs but it's local and outdoors.
