Directions to park: Exit route 30 at route 441. Take 441 north for approx. 2 miles to bottom of hill. Park in front of grassy area on the left. Follow trail along edge of woods to abandoned railroad bed. Northwest pillar is at this point with some face climbing about 100yds to the left on the railroad bed.

• The Other Chickies - Across the river and upstream on the york side of the river from chickies lies a large and complex cliff system of same and better quality than chickies. Very few people frequent/know about this area, though some very old pin scars indicated that someone had climbed here years prior.

  Take a machete, get out a map, and be prepared for adventure. Loads of trad in the 5.5 to 5.11 range, with a cool one pitch spire climb that requires a simul rap off. Be adventuous and enjoy!
