Looking for directions too... and anything else about the area that might not be obvious
and recommendations for a Thai place around St.J...
mmmm Thai food and climbing, together at last
Cheers,

The best Thai food, probably in the province is at:
Suwanna Restaurant & Inn
506-637-9015
325 Lancaster Avenue,

As far as the bouldering in Cape Spencer, it is sorta fun. I've been a few times, but never drove myself there so didn't really pay attention to the directions... Fred can help there...

If a husband speaks in the woods, and his wife is not there to hear him...is he still wrong?

If you know Saint John at all this will help. From Uptown Saint John, head east across the Courtney Bay Causeway. At the end of the Causeway take a right and follow Bayside Drive until you reach a set of traffic lights. Take a right at the lights onto Red Head Road and follow this for about 10-15 minutes until you come to the lighthouse. You will see a worn path down to the rocks. The rock is pretty sharp for the most part. Lots to play with though.


On the Thai Food front...Suwanna is good but I would check out Lemongrass on Princess street in uptown SJ.

if you need further directions or clarification give me a call at 639-2128

don't expect to find good bouldering at Spencer. We only climbed there cause we had to...
I want to go to hell... there's probably lots of rock to climb there.
