About Barrett's Cove:
A southwest facing cliff, about 250 ft high, overlooking Lake Megunticook. Good multi-pitch routes. A nice horizontal ledge (Broadway) about half way. Routes range from 5.3 R to 5.10a. Protection can be tricky (R-rated) on some routes, and runouts substantial. Some routes have bolts, and there are some bolted rap anchors, but trad is the general rule. |
