This event is on Saturday June 27 from 8am – 5pm.

Shaffer Rocks is predominantly a top-roping crag located in Michaux State Forest in Pennsylvania, about 90 minutes from the beltway at Bethesda. The crag has 30+ routes around 60ft in height from 5.3 to 5.11+. The classics are generally 5.6 to 5.10.The rock is a good quality Weverton quartzite that dries quickly despite being a north facing wall….so this is a good summer destination. Bonus: the top of the crag is a very short walk from the parking.

We will be arranging carpools closer to the date. PARKING IS VERY LIMITED.
