1-day Alpine Rock Climbing in Flatiron Buttress

Mount Katahdin, the highest peak in Maine and the northern end of the Appalachian trail, offers hundreds of exciting opportunities for rock climbing. On this amazing one-day trip, I'll take you to the beautiful Flatiron Buttress route to discover the wonders of the Northeast of the U.S.

Located in the beautiful Baxter State Park, the Flatiron Buttress route begins with the Armadillo Buttress, the most popular route on the mountain. The route then turns right. We'll be tackling 165 feet of the most incredible alpine climbing, a rare taste in the East, and enjoying the incredible views as well.

This route is a lot of fun, with exciting and approachable obstacles. Because the mountain freezes in the winter (it is also a popular spot for ice climbing), there are a lot of cracks that make climbing more easily. But there are also loose rocks. Make sure to bring a helmet.

So if you are ready for a unique climbing experience in the East, book your trip now. This incredible route is perfect for a one-day trip. You'll love it so much, you'll come down ready for more.

There's also more options for climbing in Katahdin. Be sure to check the trips I offer to the Armadillo Buttress, Chimney, Hanta Yo and others.
