Very interesting line with conditions - and consequently difficulties - which vary considerably from one year to the next. In some seasons it is an almost exclusively mixed outing.
To reach Conway start from either Portland or Boston, two or three hours by car. Alternatively, Montreal lies 4 hours away by car.
AccessFrom the center of Conway drive west down the River Road for circa 1.5km to reach the West Side Road which leads to the base of Cathedral ledge. The drip is reached in just a couple of minutes on foot from the car park.
ItineraryP1: 35m 85° start.
P2: 35m some 95° if on ice, otherwise M6 mixed, hard to protect.
P3: 30m 85/90° with difficult climb past the wedged block at the end.
Abseil down the route
