The D'arcy Traverse

Despite how the names may suggest, this was actually the original line. It's a classic example of how these historical routes were put up, following the weakness in the cliff from base to summit. While it may not hold the same significance as Thin Air or Still In Saigon these days, The D'arcy Traverse offers an adventurous and reasonably protected adventure to beat the crowds running train on the classics. For a route description, see page 205 of Handren's "North Conway Rock Climbs" .

Same start as D'arcy Route, 20 feet below the big horizontal ledge equidistant from Thin Air and Saigons.

Single rack to #3.
