MapDescription
As the Kerry guidebook says: "This is a convoluted 5 to 6 pitch chimney route up the west side of Rockfellow Dome. It is notable as the first ascent of the Rockfellow massive."
In the spirit of the very first ascent ever of the Rockfellows, it may be worth going into it as if you were that first ascent party, so no instructions to follow here. Just follow the cracks, chimneys and rock bridges over chasms, be amazed.
Location
To find the entrance into this adventure, go past the west entrance of Interiors over a ridge and around a big boulder. There is a crack opening with a tree at the entrance and a sandy bottom.
Protection
For your knees: Kneepads.
If you want to really feel like that first party, you can leave your cams at home (I would NOT recommend it).
