Winter rock.

Image
 This place is sandstone, small, and a nice place to climb practically year round.   There are a few routes setup for leading but walking around and setting up a tr is the best method.    Approach is about 5 min from the car.  Excellent sun exposure.   Located on the south facing grassy slope above where the 40 and coal camp road meet.   The rock is better than it looks from the road, and better quality than it probably should be.    Although, care must be taken when climbing cuz things do happen.   More routes are likely to be established in the near future with topos !  Winter rock is not a world class destination by any means.  But ease of access and year round climbing make it worth a little stop if you are in the area.   Nice for a pump in the off season.   Could also be a great spot to teach some rapelling.
