Dominic journeyman Registered: 11/01/01 Posts: 68 Loc: Troy NY	Okay I realize that this has probably been asked before (i couldnt find it) but can you climb at the Palisades. I took the train into NYC last weekend, from right by the Tappan Zee Bridge and there are quite extensive cliffs on the other side. Im assuming its choss?? And how chossy, youd be amazed at how desperate people can be to look for new rock! Cheers Dominic

This same forum, April 26 2002, there was a thread started entitled Palisades. It's all in there. Can I go back to bed now? _________________________ So long as you can boogie you ain't too old.
