Just joined, only home for a month, looking for some good spots in my area. Know of any?

Cheers,

There is ice climbing along the bay of funday, but the rock isn't near solid enough for climbing. You can try and check out Baxters harbour.

Chris Eager and I checked out some stuff along Hwy #14, just past Martock on the RHS.

Open up link below.

Turn into the drive way by the #14 marker, park next to the gate and hike to the brook on the right. Cross it and start up the hill to your left. There is stuff all along that hill side. We found a small wall on the top, way to the left with some cracks you could lead, but most of it was just hill side, steep landing, mossy bouldering.

I do remember a huge boulder on our hike out towards the bottom of the hill. It had a hunting blind on the top of it, and it was caked in moss. Might be 3 ok lines on it.

Let me know when your finished pulling off all the moss, I'll come out and climb them.

Ok, I think I know the spot. I'll check it out once the woods dries out and report back.

Thanks for the beta!

In Greenwood there is some top roping and potential for sport routes at the "old mill" Not bad just pretty short as I remember
