Newport Quarry Description

Routes
The routes here are at the center of the cliff where it is approximately 35 feet in height and slightly overhanging. The rock is quartzite with some loose rock. Beware of broken glass! The local test piece (5.10ish) follows the bolt line and traverses left under an overhang.
Protection
There are trees just about everywhere at the top of the cliff to set up top-ropes but they are 20 feet back in some locations. Someone had installed some new 3/8" bolts and hangers above a couple of climbs but they were chopped. There is one bolted route on the cliff but the route setter must have flunked geometry because the distance between bolts results in ground fall so you are better off top-roping.
