About Rumney Orange Crush

Orange Crush is Rumney's most varied sport crag — the left side is nearly horizontal roof climbing, then the angle relaxes to steep vertical faces with longer technical lines on the right. Reached via a short trail through the woods from the top of Bonsai. Many early routes required significant cleaning before their first ascents and rock quality has improved with traffic. Shares Rumney's weather anchor with the Main Cliff. WMNF day-use fee applies.
