First Post
I will enjoy your comments and hearing about your climbing adventures on the crags listed in this blog.
John: Just saw your site. What a great resource. Thank you for all the hard work that must have gone into making this available to everyone. Cheers, Nathan
Chris, the Beginner slab at Ilchester is ideal for young kids, I have taken two 5 and 6 year old kids climbing there and it was a lot of fun. If your in the need for something slightly more challenging check out the right side of "Bloede Dam Crag" which is just south of Ilchester. For some taller and steeper beginner routes check out the right side of Alberton Rock North west of route 70 and the Patapsco. One more rock that may be comparable to Beginner slab at Ilchester is "South of Morgan Run A" however it would need some cleaning off.
John - Thanks. I'll let you know how it works out. My son is in cub scouts so we'll look at an outing this spring once it warms back up. The Bloede Dam Crag sounds good too. Peace

ReplyDeleteThis is an awesome site. Moved out here from CO back in '04 and the only thing I've been on is the slab at Morgan Run.
ReplyDeleteGonna take the cub scout troop to the beginner slab near Ilchester.
Thanks for this!
