Description

The Gateway Boulders are a series of low faces, prows, and boulders along the Gateway Trail of Catoctin Mountain Park. 

Most of the climbs are low enough to be considered boulder problems, with overhangs and slab faces constituting the majority of the terrain. Many rocks and seemingly obvious lines exist here with few recorded ascents.

👍 - fun
⭐️ - lots of fun
🌟 - a tad more fun
💎 - I literally cannot walk past this boulder without staring at it or climbing it

History

I’m not sure how much attention this stretch of boulders got before the new millennia. If anyone has any information I would love to hear about it!
