Beaver Brook

Future Rumney of the ADK? Probably not, but Beaver Brook (also known as Hardy Road) is one of the very few sport climbing spots in the ADK. Definitely not a destination crag, but worth a half-day or post-work session. Around 10 or so routes from 5.9 to 5.12+. Steep vertical face climbing on edgy sharp rock. Some overhangs and roofs. A bit of crumbly rock in places, but generally good. Potential for a few new routes.

East facing cliff. The bugs can be especially nasty here given the bog below in the valley. The best climbing here is in the fall. There is some poison Ivy on the last part of the approach. Pants recommended.
